## Description

DISCOVERING STATISTICS USING IBM SPSS STATISTICS : Field, Andy: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: I think I am finally 'getting' statistics - I have had a fear of numbers since school, as my teacher showed little patience towards those of us who found statistics harder than the A grade students. As part of my psychology degree I have been forced to confront this fear. The modules at university have been dry to say the least, and this certainly makes learning more challenging. I was recommended this book and it has made statistics much more, dare I say, 'fun' for me to learn. My confidence is gradually growing; I thought it might be that I am just not intelligent enough to understand all this, but the book is proving me wrong :) I don't think statistics comes easy to me and I am having to re-read bits of the book to remember different concepts as there is a lot of learn but I have no doubt that it will sink in. This is not a reflection on the book or the way it is written by the way, it is just me having trouble with retaining lots of information. The book is great; it goes through statistical concepts and analyses starting from 1st year undergraduate to 3rd year and beyond, so things get more challenging as you go through the book. It also helps you learn how to use SPSS, which isn't overly complicated once you know your way around it, and Andy gives some humorous examples when explaining different statistical concepts which make the reading a lot easier. I would highly recommend this book to undergraduate students and postgraduate. Also check out Andy's website 'statistics hell' which has video tutorials and handouts which are equally as useful.
Review: This is the most amazing book ever - This is the most amazing book ever. It is an absolute must for any serious student of psychology who wants to get top marks in their undergraduate research work and particularly if pursuing research as a post graduate. The complex statistical theory is literally spoon-fed, so you can be sure to benefit greatly. For example, it speaks about why basing conclusions on merely the p-value is controversial and the importance of reporting and discussing effect size and what significant things this says about the data in the absence of a significant p-value. This is not to be missed by any researcher. Although the book does afford help in a glitch. The real benefit and learning will happen if you allocate the whole half term, for example, or time before commencing your studies, to peruse this book systematically, cover to cover. It is such an excellent teaching text, every effort should be made to use it as a course rather than simply a reference. The author presents the material in an extremely engaging format and uses excellent examples for illustration. I highly recommend answering the questions at the end of each chapter as these will show and fill gaps in understanding. By the end, you will be a research methods teacher. This books is a must.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book but...
*by B***G on 3 April 2014*

Me and maths/statistics do not go together despite several attempts on my behalf to try and grasp it. Thankfully I stumbled upon this book during my doctorate degree and I can honestly say it was a lifesaver. I found that the content was explained in a straightforward, simple, accessible manner, with some rather amusing 'real-life' examples to illustrate the point. At first glance it seems to disregard the seriousness of statistics because it is filled with several jokes and self-disclosure (the author clearly loves cats), but once you look beyond that, it has a serious side. I havent read it page to page as i've only skipped to the sections relevant to me (muliple regression / factor analysis / t-tests, ANOVA) but from what I have seen, the author explains what the hell it is, why you would use it, what the mathmatic calculation is and then there is a step-by-step walkthrough. HOWEVER...I did find it a bit tooooooo much sometimes, in that I just wanted him to get to the point and tell me what line I would need to look at on my SPSS output and why. So for that reason, I ended up getting the SPSS survival guide too (but the SPSS survival guide can be a bit too basic). Therefore, both books together helped me do what I wanted and for once, I actually understood the statistics I was doing and why.
