Understanding Statistical Analysis and Modeling is a text for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in the social, behavioral, or managerial sciences seeking to understand the logic of statistical analysis. Robert Bruhl covers all the basic methods of descriptive and inferential statistics in an accessible manner by way of asking and answering research questions. Concepts are discussed in the context of a specific research project and the book includes probability theory as the basis for understanding statistical inference. Instructions on using SPSS® are included so that readers focus on interpreting statistical analysis rather than calculations. Tables are used, rather than formulas, to describe the various calculations involved with statistical analysis and the exercises in the book are intended to encourage students to formulate and execute their own empirical investigations.

Robert Bruhl is the author of the statistics textbook Understanding Statistical Analysis and Modeling for Sage (2018).  He is currently Clinical Professor in the Department of Political Science, where his primary focus is on policy analysis and research design.  Included in his specialties are economic history, voter behavior, and Congressional behavior.  Most recently, he has focused his attention on political marketing and campaigns, and has presented papers on this subject both nationally and internationally.  He has also contributed his expertise to both local, national, and international media.  Prior to his appointment at UIC, he taught at DePaul University in their Public Service Graduate Program, and before entering the academic world, he enjoyed a fifteen-year career in the private sector, and held various positions in management consulting, marketing, and business planning.  He has a B.A. degree (Phi Beta Kappa) in Mathematics from Northwestern University, an M.S. degree in Computer and Communication Sciences from the University of Michigan, an M.B.A. in Business Economics from the University of Chicago, and a Ph.D. (Phi Kappa Phi) in Public Policy Analysis from the University of Illinois at Chicago.  He is currently at work on a book describing the political and economic development of the English-American Colonies, with a focus on the effect this development had on the U.S. Constitution.
