Riassunto

This introductory behavioral statistics text focuses on helping students develop an understanding of the theories and principles behind inferential statistics without stressing the mathematics behind those principles. Each new concept is introduced in the context of real-life research situations. This very readable text was written for students with limited mathematics backgrounds and helps them develop the skills needed to interpret data. The author explains concepts simply, usually relying on prose rather than a series of mathematical formulas. The author describes his approach as being relatively heavy on theory and relatively light on mathematics. Mathematical formulas are introduced only when they are necessary. Theories are presented in ways that are accessible, as Tropper appeals to students' intuition and reasoning. Word problems and numerical examples are provided in abundance to give students plenty of opportunities for practice.
