Summary

"This text guides the novice user through the process of entering and analysing data using Versions 8, 9 and 10 of SPSS. The text: assumes only the most basic knowledge of Windows; reminds students of basic issues regarding design and statistics; proceeds gently through the major quantitative statistical techniques used in psychology; introduces students to the rationale and use of each test; and provides clearly annotated examples of SPSS output." "In this way, users are shown how to choose, perform and report the statistical analysis of their own data. The emphasis the text places on considering what the output from SPSS means is a result of the authors marking far too many reports that showed that using SPSS and understanding the output of SPSS are two very different things."--Jacket.
