Reading statistics and research / Schuyler W. Huck. - 5th ed. - Boston : Pearson/Allyn & Bacon, c2008. - xxxii, 544 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
1The Typical Formal of a Journal Article -- 2 Descriptive Statistics: The Univariate Case -- 3 Bivariate Correlation -- 4 Reliability and Validity -- 5 Foundations of Inferential Statistics -- 6 Estimation -- 7 Hypothesis Testing -- 8 Effect Size, Power, CIs, and Bonferroni -- 9 Statistical Inferences Concerning Bivariate orrelation Coefficients -- 10 Inferences Concerning One or Two Means -- 11Tests on Three or More Means Using a One-Way ANOVA -- 12 Post Hoc and Planned Comparisons -- 13 Two-Way Analyses of Variance -- 14 Analyses of Variance With repeated Measures -- 15 The Analysis of Covariance -- 16 Bivariate, Multiple, and Logistic Regression -- 17 Inferences on Percentages, Proportions, and Frequencies -- 18 Statistical Tests on Ranks (Nonparametric Tests) -- 19 The Quantitative Portion of Mixed Methods Studies.
This text shows consumers of research how to read, understand, and critically evaluate the statistical information and research results contained in technical research reports.The text is also invaluable for applied researchers who need advice on how to analyze their own data and summarize their empirical findings. Students in education and other disciplines need to learn how to interpret and use statistics and research, but often they do not have any way to begin this process. This text clearly and methodically presents basic statistical and research concepts and illustrates how to employ them in making sound educational decisions. Excerpts from more than 500 recent research articles are presented, analyzed, and discussed to illustrate concepts, while numerous cases, terms and review questions help guide the discussion.
