The key to success…practice, practice, practice.

Mirroring chapters in the text, this companion workbook offers students the opportunity to put their new skills to work. With critical thinking questions, data-based exercises, helpful tips on data presentation, and suggested reading lists, this handy workbook continues instruction from the text and gets students comfortable using and applying each technique. The workbook also includes a helpful software guide—How to Use SPSS—to capitalize on the value of computers in methods courses. Freeing students from time-consuming calculations, SPSS allows for quick results interpretation and data validation.

The workbook’s CD-ROM includes seven data sets that cover a range of measures and applications from citizen and employee survey data and community indicators, to time series data of juvenile crimes, to an assessment of watersheds developed by the EPA, to regression analysis of pollution, productivity improvement, and crime. The data sets are available in a range of formats—SPSS, SAS, SYSTAT, and STATA—for maximum flexibility.

 

*SPSS was acquired by IBM in October 2009
