Statistics is the language of modern empirical social and behavioural
science and the varieties of regression form the basis of this
language. Statistical and computing advances have led to new and
exciting regressions that have become the necessary tools for any
researcher in these fields. In a way that is refreshingly engaging and
readable, Wright and London describe the most useful of these
techniques and provide step-by-step instructions, using the freeware
R, to analyze datasets that can be located on the books′ webpage:
www.sagepub.co.uk/wrightandlondon. Techniques covered in this book
include multilevel modeling, ANOVA and ANCOVA, path analysis,
mediation and moderation, logistic regression (generalized linear
models), generalized additive models, and robust methods. These are
all tested out using a range of real research examples conducted by
the authors in every chapter. Given the wide coverage of techniques,
this book will be essential reading for any advanced undergraduate and
graduate student (particularly in psychology) and for more experienced
researchers wanting to learn how to apply some of the more recent
statistical techniques to their datasets. The Authors are donating all
royalties from the book to the American Partnership for Eosinophilic
Disorders.
