Features:
• Illustrates how to plan, conduct, analyze, and prepare anexperimental or research report
• Includes new statistical procedures that have been developed and validated since the previous edition
• Incorporates SAS in the exercises at the end of each chapter
• Takes into account the changes in the APA guidebook
• Provides new examples in exercise and sport science, public health, gerontology, and biomedical areas
• Supplies a solutions manual to instructors upon qualifyingcoursed adoption
Selected Contents:
An Overview of Scientific Research. Planning, Conducting,and Reporting Research. Methods for Describing Data.Bivariate Descriptive Statistics. Simple ExperimentalDesigns. Simple Analysis of Variance. Multifactor Analysisof Variance. Examples of ANOVA Designs: BetweenGroups, Within Subjects, and Mixed Designs. Appendices.
