Nonparametric Statistics for Social and Behavioral Sciences
Incorporating a hands-on pedagogical approach, Nonparametric Statistics for Social and Behavioral Sciences presents the concepts, principles, and methods used in performing many nonparametric procedures. It also demonstrates practical applications of the most common nonparametric procedures using IBM’s SPSS software. This text is the only current nonparametric book written specifically for students in the behavioral and social sciences. Emphasizing sound research designs, appropriate statistical analyses, and accurate interpretations of results, the text: Explains a conceptual framework for each statistical procedure Presents examples of relevant research problems, associated research questions, and hypotheses that precede each procedure Details SPSS paths for conducting various analyses Discusses the interpretations of statistical results and conclusions of the research With minimal coverage of formulas, the book takes a nonmathematical approach to nonparametric data analysis procedures and shows students how they are used in research contexts. Each chapter includes examples, exercises, and SPSS screen shots illustrating steps of the statistical procedures and resulting output.

Fear the Storm
When Rachel Snyder’s grandmother insisted they spend her birthday in their hometown, Rachel realizes she must return to a place she swore never to step foot in again. After all, the town had sent her father to prison and her and her mother packing. Sheriff Lucas Quinn has waited eight years for Rachel to return to Rainwater, Texas and he’s not going to miss the opportunity to get her back into his empty arms and his heart. Even if it means bending the rules a little to get to the truth. As Rachel and Lucas set out to prove her father’s innocence, will love find its way back into their hearts? Will the truth destroy them? Can love survive all this time? Are they destined to be together forever?
Eavesdropping on Texas History
Most writers and readers of history have at one time or another wished that they could have been at some particular defining event in history. Whether it was a moment of a great decision, a major turning point that changed everything, or simply an intriguing occurrence, many scholars and others have on occasion wished that they “could have been there.” Texas history provides infinite Lone Star episodes to consider, rooted in the widespread assumption that Texas is a colorful, unique, and exceptional place with larger-than-life heroes and narratives. Mary L. Scheer has assembled fifteen contributors to explore special moments in Texas history. The contributors assembled for this anthology...
STATISTICS FOR SOCIAL SCIENCES
Designed as a text for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of psychology, education, sociology, demography and economics, this comprehensive book explains the theoretical and computational aspects of statistics. Since the students of social sciences often find it difficult to comprehend easily the statistical techniques due to complex mathematical steps involved, this book explains the concepts as well as steps in a simple and clear manner. The text provides solutions to basic concepts and problems using a number of illustrations. In addition, it demonstrates the simplest way of using SPSS software for statistical analysis. SPSS screen images are used to make the ideas clearer for th...

A Guide to Doing Statistics in Second Language Research Using SPSS
This valuable book shows second language researchers how to use the statistical program SPSS to conduct statistical tests frequently done in SLA research. Using data sets from real SLA studies, A Guide to Doing Statistics in Second Language Research Using SPSS shows newcomers to both statistics and SPSS how to generate descriptive statistics, how to choose a statistical test, and how to conduct and interpret a variety of basic statistical tests. It covers the statistical tests that are most commonly used in second language research, including chi-square, t-tests, correlation, multiple regression, ANOVA and non-parametric analogs to these tests. The text is abundantly illustrated with graphs and tables depicting actual data sets, and exercises throughout the book help readers understand concepts (such as the difference between independent and dependent variables) and work out statistical analyses. Answers to all exercises are provided on the book’s companion website, along with sample data sets and other supplementary material.
Quantitative Data Analysis with SPSS Release 10 for Windows
