Experimental Designs Using ANOVA (with Student Suite CD-ROM) New edition [Hardback]

Written for those with basic descriptive and inferential statistics, this text is designed for senior-level undergraduates and first-year graduate students. The authors take an innovative regressive approach to ANOVA alongside the traditional approach. They begin with the nature of research, types of research designs, types of treatments, outcome measures, issues encountered in most designs, generalizing results, computer assistance. They cover organizing, describing and screening data; the logic of analysis and tests of assumptions in basic ANOVA; one-way randomized-groups analysis of variance and fixed-effects designs; factorial randomized-groups and fixed-effects designs; repeated measure designs, mixed randomized-repeated designs; analysis of covariance; Latin-square designs; screening and other incomplete designs; and analysis with random effects. Problem sets come with each chapter. The CD-ROM contains data sets and the student solutions manual. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

This text reflects the practical approach of the authors. Barbara Tabachnick and Linda Fidell emphasize the use of statistical software in design and analysis of research in addition to conceptual understanding fostered by the presentation and interpretation of fundamental equations. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN USING ANOVA includes the regression approach to ANOVA alongside the traditional approach, making it clearer and more flexible. The text includes details on how to perform both simple and complicated analyses by hand through traditional means, through regression, and through SPSS and SAS.
