Experimental Design and Statistics for Psychology: A First
Course is a concise, straighforward and accessible introduction
to the design of psychology experiments and the statistical tests
used to make sense of their results.
- Makes abundant use of charts, diagrams and figures.
- Assumes no prior knowledge of statistics.
- Invaluable to all psychology students needing a firm grasp of
the basics, but tackling of some of the topic’s more complex,
controversial issues will also fire the imagination of more
ambitious students.
- Covers different aspects of experimental design, including
dependent versus independent variables, levels of treatment,
experimental control, random versus systematic errors, and within
versus between subjects design.
- Provides detailed instructions on how to perform statistical tests with SPSS.
