About this product

Product Information

This eighth edition of McCall's well-respected book continues to present concepts in a way that students can easily understand. The new edition has been updated throughout and now includes recommendations by the APA Task Force on Statistical Inference. As in previous editions, McCall helps students see the many real applications of statistics to research in the behavioral sciences. Taking a traditional approach to teaching the basic statistical concepts and methods used in behavioral research. McCall emphasizes building an understanding of the logic of statistics rather than stressing the mechanics. In this exciting revision, McCall continues to keep the data for the computational problems simple, so your students can focus on the rationale and outcome of techniques rather on the calculations themselves. Using clear discussion, a wide variety of end-of-chapter exercises, and examples drawn from actual studies, McCall helps students learn how to choose appropriate statistical methods and correctly interpret the results. Also retained in this edition are the author's step-by-step explanations for each proof and his clear definitions of symbols--the essential vocabulary of statistics--that have been so successful in helping students master the material.

  • Good enough book

    This book was a little damaged on the side but that was no problem because it served its purpose for the class. I dont mind as long as it has all the pages and there were no writtings that interfered with the text. Nice price for a college student too!

  • Pretty good :)

    I bought it to use for my Psy307 class, but we rarely use it. I'm glad that I could find it used for $35, because if I would have paid over $100 dollars like the rest of my classmates, and hardly ever used it, I would be pretty mad. But so far the book seems to be serving it's purpose.

  • IN perfect condition

    It came in just in time for my first homework assignment and it was pretty much good as new. It looked old but then again, it is an old edition.
