Understanding and Using Advanced Statistics is a comprehensive, practical guide for postgraduate students advising how and when to use more advanced statistical methods. Perfect for students without a mathematical background, the authors refresh important basics such as descriptive statistics and research design as well as introducing essential upper-level techniques to cater for the advanced student.

Key Features:

- Comprehensive guide informing how to use a range of advanced statistical methods such as MANOVA, path analysis and logistical regression;

- Inter-disciplinary: ideal for students studying upper level statistical methods in any subject across the social sciences;

- Practical guide: case studies, further reading, key terms explained in order to help the non-mathematically orientated student get ahead with their research.
