Ideal as a companion to a statistics or research methods text or as a stand-alone guide, Using SPSS for Social Statistics and Research Methods, Third Edition, uses images and directions drawn directly from SPSS/PASW Version 18.0 (for both PC and Mac computers) to teach undergraduate students how to use the software to manage data or to conduct statistical data analysis. This fully updated pocket-size guide addresses a wide variety of data analysis topics, making it useful for the classroom or for independent study, and offers a number of useful insider tips and hints for students. The Third Edition also offers the use of a dataset from the latest version of the General Social Survey (GSS).
