Description Classic, yet contemporary. Theoretical, yet applied.
McClave & Sincich’s Statistics gives you the best of both worlds. This text offers a trusted, comprehensive introduction to statistics that emphasizes inference and integrates real data throughout. The authors stress the development of statistical thinking, the assessment of credibility, and value of the inferences made from data. The Twelfth Edition infuses a new focus on ethics, which is critically important when working with statistical data. Chapter Summaries have a new, study-oriented design, helping students stay focused when preparing for exams.
Data, exercises, technology support, and Statistics in Action cases are updated throughout the book. In addition, MyStatLab will have increased exercise coverage and two new banks of questions to draw from: Getting Ready for Stats and Conceptual Question Library. Ideal for one- or two-semester courses in introductory statistics, this text assumes a mathematical background of basic algebra. Flexibility is built in for instructors who teach a more advanced course, with optional footnotes about calculus and the underlying theory. End-of-Chapter Summaries now serve as a more effective study aid for students. Important points are reinforced through flow graphs (which aid in selecting the appropriate statistical method) and boxed notes with key words, formulas, definitions, lists, and key concepts.
More than 1,800 exercises are included, based on a wide variety of applications in various disciplines and research areas, and more than 20% have been updated for the new edition. Some students have difficulty learning the mechanics of statistical techniques while applying the techniques to real applications. For this reason, exercise sections are divided into four parts:. To complement the text, support for the statistical software is available in MyStatLab’s Technology Instruction Videos and the three-hole punched, tri-fold Technology Study Cards. Student discounts on select statistical software packages are also available. Ask your Pearson sales representative for details. A Resource CD-ROM accompanies the text, with files for text examples, exercises, Statistics in Action and Real-World case data sets marked with a CD icon.
All data files are available as.csv,.txt, and TI files. The CD also contains Chapter 14, Nonparametric Statistics, and a set of appletsthat allowstudents to run simulations that visually demonstrate some of the difficult statistical concepts (e.g., sampling distributions and confidence intervals.) Flexibility in Coverage. Probability and Counting Rules:. Probability poses a challenge for instructors because they must decide on the level of presentation, and students find it a difficult subject to comprehend. Unlike other texts that combine probability and counting rules, McClave/Sincich includes the counting rules (with examples) in an appendix rather than in the body of the chapter on probability; the instructor can control the level of coverage of probability covered.
Multiple Regression and Model Building:. Two full chapters are devoted to discussing the major types of inferences that can be derived from a regression analysis, showing how these results appear in the output from statistical software, and, most important, selecting multiple regression models to be used in an analysis. The instructor has the choice of a one-chapter coverage of simple linear regression (Chapter 11), a two-chapter treatment of simple and multiple regression (excluding the sections on model building in Chapter 12), or complete coverage of regression analysis, including model building and regression diagnostics. This extensive coverage of such useful statistical tools will provide added evidence to the student of the relevance of statistics to real-world problems.
