An innovative and easy-to-read introduction to understanding statistical concepts and data in Psychology, written with even the most maths-averse Psychology student in mind. Authored by the current president of the BPS (British Psychological Society), this second edition includes guidance for SPSS and extended statistical coverage to bridge the gap between conceptual understanding of data and how to run statistical tests.
Confronts the challenge of teaching statistics
The material is structured so that the reader revisits ideas at increasing levels of sophistication, building on their existing knowledge in order to develop their understanding of statistics.
This book, grounded in the authors' research into the way students learn maths and statistics, provides a 'way in' to statistics for all Psychology undergraduates, from those who have studied Maths to A Level to those who find their statistics courses to be the most daunting of their university years.
The authors emphasise the importance of developing a 'feel' for data, particularly through visual representation, before statistical tests are discussed in detail.
Making extensive use of exploratory data analysis, the text emphasises conceptual understanding. Concepts are introduced and clearly explained, enabling the student to understand the foundations of data analysis in interpreting psychological research.
There is an abundant use of examples from psychological research throughout, helping students to get to grips with different forms of data.
Flexible approach
Can easily be integrated into 'standard courses', but also used to support more mathematicallyorientated courses.
Reinforces understanding
Avoids the jargon that makes statistics so inaccessible to many Psychology students.
Pedagogical features include Socratic dialogues between statisticsaverse students and their lecturers; 'Making Links' boxes to help students see the connections between basic and more complex tests; and innovative comprehension check boxes which encourage students to stop and think before reading on.
A new feature, 'Making sense of SPSS', links this conceptual comprehension to the way students mostly carry out their statistical tests.
Making Sense of Data and Statistics in Psychology ensures that students have a firm basis in the use of statistics that will serve them for life, not just for the duration of their statistics course.
