"This popular and well-respected statistics text has been thoroughly revised to present all the topics behavioral science students need. Now featuring expanded Web sites for instructors and students, the authors provide a framework that connects all of the topics in the text and allows for easy comparison of different statistical analyses. Refined over seven editions by master teachers, this book gives instructors and students alike the well laid out examples and exercises to support the teaching and learning of statistics for both manipulation and consumption of data"--

Introductory Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences 5/e introduces and explains statistical concepts and principles. This text presents a broader outlook on hypothesis testing by including such concepts as statistical power, indices of the strength of the relationship between variables, and other techniques.

This text introduces and explains statistical concepts and principles clearly, assuming minimal mathematical sophistication but avoiding a "cookbook" approach. The text also presents a broader outlook on hypothesis testing by including such often-neglected concepts as statistical power, indices of the strength of the relationship between variables, and other techniques.

The book also presents a broader outlook on hypothesis testing by including such often-neglected concepts as statistical power, indices and other techniques.

This classic text on multiple regression is noted for its nonmathematical, applied, and data-analytic approach. Readers profit from its verbal-conceptual exposition and frequent use of examples. The applied emphasis provides clear illustrations of the principles and provides worked examples of the types of applications that are possible. Researchers learn how to specify regression models that directly address their research questions. An overview of the fundamental ideas of multiple regression and a review of bivariate correlation and regression and other elementary statistical concepts provide a strong foundation for understanding the rest of the text. The third edition features an increased emphasis on graphics and the use of confidence intervals and effect size measures, and an accompanying website with data for most of the numerical examples along with the computer code for SPSS, SAS, and SYSTAT, at www.psypress.com/9780805822236 .  Applied Multiple Regression serves as both a textbook for graduate students and as a reference tool for researchers in psychology, education, health sciences, communications, business, sociology, political science, anthropology, and economics. An introductory knowledge of statistics is required. Self-standing chapters minimize the need for researchers to refer to previous chapters.

Statistical Power Analysis is a nontechnical guide to power analysis in research planning that provides users of applied statistics with the tools they need for more effective analysis. The Second Edition includes: * a chapter covering power analysis in set correlation and multivariate methods; * a chapter considering effect size, psychometric reliability, and the efficacy of "qualifying" dependent variables and; * expanded power and sample size tables for multiple regression/correlation.

Life Values and Adolescent Mental Health (Research Monographs in Adolescence Series)

Arising from the Cohens' work on the epidemiology of childhood psychopathology, this book explores the two aspects of motivational structure--ideas and values--that underlie the development of maladaptive functioning and symptoms. The first aspect is a measure of what children admire in their peers; this measure is seen as an operationalization of personal ideals. The second is a measure of life goals, seen as a representation of the contemporary structure of long-term personal values. Despite the considerable amount of attention given in the popular press and among social critics and politicians, values have been relatively neglected as a topic of empirical research in this country. To fill the void, this work uses data from a large cohort of young people who have been studied longitudinally since early childhood to elucidate three aspects of life goals and values: * What are the demographic, family, peer, school, and intrapersonal influences that shape values and life goals of adolescents? * How do they change over the course of adolescence? * What impact do these values have on the lives of adolescents and young adults? Decisions about what we find most admirable and which of the many apparently good things in life we will take on as our top priorities are consequential both for the contemporary and for the future emotional and behavioral well-being of the individual. Thus, this book explores systematically the environmental origins of ideals and values, using deprivation and attainment hypotheses to examine a variety of influences on the development of differences in values. This book also examines the relationship between the measures of children's values and psychopathology, examining both the "Axis 1" diagnosis, including disruptive behavior disorders, depression, and anxiety, and the "Axis 2" personality disorders. Providing an extensive study of the life values of adolescents and the state of their mental health, this monograph will be of interest to developmental psychologists specializing in adolescence, child clinical psychologists, and psychiatrists.

Power and Precision is a stand-alone program that is used to find the sample size for a planned study.  This program features an unusually clear interface and many tools to assist the user in developing an understanding of power analysis. Incorporating the ability to create tables, graphs, and reports with a single click, it includes a number of features that are helpful for teaching power analysis, as well as others that allow the researcher to explain and justify the selection of a sample size for grant applications.  Easy to use, the program includes an interactive guide that walks the user through every step required for the analysis, and it creates detailed reports of the results.   The program allows the user to select from a variety of computational options, including exact computations for virtually all procedures. It features the ability to take account of precision (the confidence interval width), as well as statistical power. Tables and graphs provide an immediate picture that can be used to explore all available options for increasing power. The program includes modules for means, proportions, correlations, analysis of variance/covariance, and multiple regression. Version 2 adds modules for survival analysis, logistic regression, and equivalence testing.  The program comes with a 220-page manual that includes a comprehensive introduction to power analysis, as well as worked examples and algorithms for all procedures.  Key Features:  *Work interactively--modify any element of the effect size, the sample size, or alpha, and immediately see the impact on power. *Create reports--create a detailed report with a single click; copy and paste this report into the study proposal or grant application. *Create tables and graphs--create tables and graphs to study the impact of each factor and include them in the proposal or grant application to justify the sample size.
