Statistics and Research Methodology: A Gentle Conversation, Third Edition is a student-friendly introduction to research methodology and statistics, aimed at allaying students’ fears and anxieties about studying these topics. Our more conversational approach should help students feel as if the authors are standing by them, explaining concepts and procedures as they read through the text.
We use examples throughout to clarify concepts and strengthen the connections between statistics, data, and research questions. We emphasize understanding not only the manipulation of statistical data, but also what the actual findings mean in relation to significance issues, samples, and populations. We cover effect size for all statistical inquiries, from correlation to ANOVA.
