Building SPSS Graphs to Understand Data
“This book provides excellent descriptions and guidance on the use of graphical images for data presentation. These are necessary tools for all students pursuing graduate degrees with a research component attached.”(Clifton C. Addison 2011-10-28)“I am delighted to see a book of this kind. It fills a gap in conventional statistics books, which devote just one chapter to graphical displays. This book helps students make the connection between research questions and graphical approaches in a way that no other statistics book has done.”(Camille L. Lawrence 2011-10-28)“I like the approach that argues graphs are one way to understand data and answer pertinent questions. This is a very useful entrée for the many ‘number-phobic’ students we encounter in social work.”(Rosemary McCaslin 2011-10-28)“I don’t know of a comparable book. There are many excellent books on SPSS statistical procedures but this is the first one on graphics that I’ve seen which is why I was so excited to review it...The level of detail and the number of examples are key strengths. My impression that overall it is one of a kind is the biggest strength.” (James P. Donnelly)
