Editorial Reviews
Review
‘An excellent introduction to using SPSS for data analysis. It provides a self-contained resource itself, with more than simply (detailed and clear) step-by-step descriptions of statistical procedures in SPSS. There is also a wealth of tips and advice, and for each statistical technique a brief, but consistently reliable, explanation is provided.’ – Associate Professor George Dunbar, University of Warwick
‘This book is recommended as ESSENTIAL to all students completing research projects – minor and major.’ – Dr John Roodenburg, Monash University
