Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this text is an introduction to the use of statistical tests in psychology experiments: statistics without panic. Presented in a new textbook format, its key objective is to enable students to select appropriate statistical tests to evaluate the significance of data obtained from psychological experiments. Improvements ion the organization of chapters emphasize even more clearly the principle of introducing complex experimental designs on a need to know basis, leaving more space for an extended interpretation of analysis of variance. In an important development for the second edition, students are introduced to modern statistical packages as a useful tool for calculations, the emphasis being on understanding and interpretation.
