Synopsis
For criminology and criminal justice undergraduate statistics courses. This book is concept-based and focuses on the building blocks of statistical ideas. Covering the essential techniques-univariate tools, Chi-square, t- test, analysis of variance, and Pearson's r- in a simple conversational style, the text explains the concepts behind each technique and how results are interpreted. Its emphasis is on understanding over mathematical calculations, and its goal is to give students a grasp of the role of variance and error. A chapter on graphical statistics complements the normal quantitative approaches and each technique is set in the context of how it is used to answer research questions., This book is concept-based and focuses on the building blocks of statistical ideas.

    Seller was responding fast and sent out the item soon after purchase. Item was as advertised and packaged securely. For some reason ebay made it cross the US from west to east two times, but at no fault from the seller. I was very happy with the price I paid for. Would recommend the seller for further purchases.

    Deck arrived in "working" condition with cosmetic scratches on top of deck as shown and described. Delivery time was good considering the distance. Deck was packed well and not damaged in shipment. Considering the condition of the deck as it was described, it was a good value. Thank you.
