本書序言

With a new emphasis on the same "real data" professionals use to make evidence-based decisions, Healey's STATISTICS: A TOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH AND DATA ANALYSIS, 11e, introduces fundamental concepts and their practical application to current social issues -- no advanced math knowledge required. Examples from daily life illustrate that statistics are not just abstract mathematical constructs but have practical value in government, education, business, media, politics, sports and more. The latest version of IBM's SPSS software is fully integrated, and end-of-chapter SPSS problems are labeled by discipline. Making statistics accessible for even the most math-adverse learners, the text breaks down complex material to help students master key concepts and develop skills they will need as professionals in a social science field -- or as statistically literate consumers of social research.

本書特色

●SPSS examples include problems using the 2018 General Social Survey, the Pew Research Center's Core Trends Survey and databases that incorporate information from the 50 states and a diverse group of nations.
●A new emphasis is placed on the same "real data" that most industries now use to make evidence-based decisions. In every chapter, hypothetical examples have been replaced with new data used by professionals working on current issues in social policy research, market research, social work, education and other fields. These are now featured in Social Research and Data Analysis boxes.
●Highlighting the careers in data analysis that social science students can now pursue, new end-of-chapter problems have been added on social policy and market research topics to complement the text's traditional problems in sociology, social work, political science, criminal justice, public administration and gerontology.
●All the sections on politics (including the most recent general election), criminal justice, public opinion, sexual behavior and other topics have been thoroughly updated throughout. A "Using Statistics" box at the beginning of each chapter tells students what kinds of things they can learn by using that material and where in the chapter they can find examples of it.

本書序言

隨著對專業人士用來做出基於證據的決策的同一種「真實數據」的新重視,Healey 的《統計學:社會研究與數據分析工具,第11版》介紹了基本概念及其在當前社會問題中的實際應用——不需要高級數學知識。日常生活中的例子說明了統計不僅僅是抽象的數學構造,而是在政府、教育、商業、媒體、政治、體育等領域具有實際價值。最新版本的 IBM SPSS 軟體已完全整合,並且每章結尾的 SPSS 問題按學科標記。這本書使統計學對於即使是最不喜歡數學的學習者也變得可及,將複雜的材料分解,幫助學生掌握關鍵概念並發展他們在社會科學領域作為專業人士所需的技能——或作為社會研究的統計素養消費者。

本書特色

● SPSS 範例包括使用 2018 年一般社會調查、皮尤研究中心的核心趨勢調查以及包含來自 50 個州和多個國家的信息的數據庫的問題。

● 新的重點放在大多數行業現在用來做出基於證據的決策的同一種「真實數據」上。在每一章中,假設性例子已被專業人士在社會政策研究、市場研究、社會工作、教育及其他領域中使用的新數據所取代。這些現在在社會研究與數據分析框中展示。

● 突出社會科學學生現在可以追求的數據分析職業,新增的章末問題涵蓋社會政策和市場研究主題,以補充文本中傳統的社會學、社會工作、政治學、刑事司法、公共行政和老年學問題。

● 所有有關政治(包括最近的總選舉)、刑事司法、公共意見、性行為及其他主題的部分均已全面更新。每章開頭的「使用統計」框告訴學生他們可以通過使用該材料學到什麼,以及在章中可以找到的例子。
