A Preview opens each chapter with an engaging research example that piques students' curiosity and prepares them to dive into chapter content by putting them in the cognitive mindset of the material.
Topics that traditionally have been difficult for students are given special attention, such as degrees of freedom, the distribution of sample means and more. Coverage of statistical power has been extensively rewritten and reorganized so that students can follow steps to calculate power.
End-of-chapter SPSS sections now use SPSS 25 and have been significantly expanded to offer more detailed, step-by-step demonstrations -- including SPSS screenshots -- for how to conduct chapter relevant analyses. A new research example, dataset and steps for setting up variables and data entry have been added for each. In addition, a new "Try it Yourself" feature provides solutions so students can check their understanding of the material.
The SPSS Appendix with instructions for getting started has been significantly expanded to include SPSS screenshots, details of SPSS Variable View instructions, linking of SPSS data formats with data structure categories in Chapter 1 and a demonstration example that illustrates the use of setting up variables and entering data.
