IBM SPSS STATISTICS GUIDES

		IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Guide to Data Analysis The IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Guide to Data Analysis is an unintimidating introduction to statistics and SPSS for those with little or no background in data analysis and SPSS. Besides the basics of using SPSS, you learn to describe your data, test the most frequently encountered hypotheses, and examine relationships among variables. Easy to understand—but statistically sound—explanations and interesting contemporary examples help you to learn the fundamentals of data analysis without anguish. Exercises make the book ideal for classroom use or for self-study. A data CD is included with the book.

		IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Statistical Procedures Companion The IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Statistical Procedures Companion is an invaluable guide for data analysts and advanced students who confront the problems associated with analyzing real data. You start by using SPSS to create data files and to clean and examine your data. You learn what a p-value does (and doesn't) tell you, and how to correctly report your results. Detailed discussions and examples of the most popular statistical procedures in the SPSS Base and SPSS Advanced Models modules, plus practical tips and warnings throughout the chapters, help you to better analyze your data and to avoid common pitfalls. A data CD is included with the book.

		IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Advanced Statistical Procedures Companion The IBM SPSS Statistics 19 Advanced Statistical Procedures Companion covers many of the advanced procedures in the Regression Models and Advanced Models modules of SPSS, including: loglinear and logit analysis for categorical data; ordinal, multinomial, two stage and weighted least squares regression; Kaplan-Meier, actuarial and Cox models for analysis of time-to-event data; variance components analysis; and ALSCAL. Numerous examples using real data illustrate both the statistical concepts behind the procedures and the SPSS interface for obtaining results. A data CD is included with the book.
