This book provides students of anthropology with a clear, step-by- step guide to univariate statistical methods, demystifying the aspects that are often seen as difficult or impenetrable. Explaining the central role of statistical methods in anthropology, and using only anthropological examples, the book provides a solid footing in statistical techniques. Beginning with basic descriptive statistics, this new edition also covers more advanced methods such as analyses of frequencies and variance, and simple and multiple regression analysis with dummy and continuous variables. It addresses commonly encountered problems such as small samples and non-normality. Each statistical technique is accompanied by clearly worked examples, and the chapters end with practice problem sets"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Anthropology|xStatistical methods.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85005585 650 7 Anthropology|xStatistical methods.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/810235 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMadrigal, Lorena.|tStatistics for anthropology.|b2nd ed.|dCambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2012|z9780521147088|w(DLC) 2011044367 |w(OCoLC)760532219 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=451687|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
