About this Book

In this comprehensive introduction to SPSS version 16, Jeffery Aspelmeier and Thomas Pierce make potentially complicated procedures and concepts easy to understand, easy to complete, and fun to work with. SPSS: A User-Friendly Approach goes beyond providing instructions on the mechanics of conducting data analysis and develops a student’s conceptual and applied understanding of quantitative techniques. Students are taught not only how to complete a procedure within SPSS but also how to ensure that the results of the procedure are statistically meaningful.
