Synopsis
Practical Statistics for Nursing Using SPSS provides graduate students in nursing with clear comprehension of the most common statistical functions used in nursing science. Although all of the examples and practice exercises concur with data gathered and processed within a nursing environment, the purpose of this book is not to teach new clinical information per se, rather to teach proficiency in selecting, processing, and mindfully interpreting each statistical function and finding. Herschel Knapp's approach is practical, and avoids the use of unnecessarily complex technical details that are of no interest to students. This book and ancillary materials are designed to specifically address the needs of nursing students, who simply want to know: (1) What statistical test should I use for this situation?, (2) How do I set up the data?, (3) How do I run the test?, and (4) How do I interpret and document the results? The text features a cumulative chapter sequence, annotated screenshots using SPSS, twenty exercises per chapter, and is accompanied by example data sets, solutions to odd-numbered exercises, a glossary and tutorial videos on a companion website. The book is a version for nursing of Herschel Knapp's successful interdisciplinary text, Introductory Statistics Using SPSS., A friendly and approachable guide to real-world statistics, Practical Statistics for Nursing Using SPSS (R) covers the most common statistical functions in nursing science using plain language. Students learn by doing, and an emphasis on this practical approach is seen throughout the book with each chapter structured to answer key questions: What statistical test should I use for this situation? How do I set up the data? How do I run the test? How do I interpret and document the results? Practice exercises include a vignette, codebook, and data sets ready for processing, enabling students to achieve mastery by carrying out actual statistical analyses. Online resources for students are available and include data sets for examples and exercises, fully developed solutions to all odd-numbered exercises, and thorough tutorial videos providing an overview of each statistical method, step-by-step guidance on SPSS (R) processing, and interpretation of results. Online resources for instructors include Microsoft (R) PowerPoint (R) slides for each chapter and solutions to all exercises., A friendly and approachable guide to real-world statistics, Practical Statistics for Nursing Using SPSS covers the most common statistical functions in nursing science using plain language., A friendly and approachable guide to real-world statistics, Practical Statistics for Nursing Using SPSS(R) covers the most common statistical functions in nursing science using plain language.

Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
