Hallmark features of this title
- Where Are We Going? chapter openers give context for the work students are about to begin within the broader course.
- Reality Checks ask students to think about whether their answers make sense before interpreting their results.
- Notation Alerts appear whenever special notation is introduced.
- The Tech Support section provides instructions for applying the topics covered by the chapter within each of the supported statistics packages.
- Focused examples are provided as each important concept is introduced, applying the concept usually with real, up-to-the-minute data.
- Just Checking questions are quick checks throughout the chapter that involve minimal calculation and encourage students to pause and think about what they've just read.

New and updated features of this title
- Random Matters: This new feature encourages a gradual, cumulative understanding of randomization.
- Streamlined coverage of descriptive statistics helps students progress more quickly through the first part of the book.
- For 2 of the most difficult concepts in the introductory course, technology is utilized to improve learning: the idea of a sampling distribution and the reasoning of statistical inference.
- A third variable is introduced with contingency tables and mosaic plots in Chapter 3 to give students earlier experience with multivariable thinking. Then, following the discussion of correlation and regression as a tool (without inference) in Chapters 6, 7 and 8, multiple regression is introduced in Chapter 9.
- Expanded and revised Think/Show/Tell Step-by-Step Examples guide students through the process of analyzing a problem through worked examples.
- New Web tools provide interactive versions of the distribution tables at the back of the book, and tools for randomization inference methods such as the bootstrap and for repeated sampling from larger populations now can be found online.
