Statistical Analysis "In Focus"

Statistical Analysis "In Focus" supports users of Gregory J. Privitera's Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences, Third Edition who work with a statistical program other than SPSS or Excel. Three standalone parts, each dedicated to R, SAS, and Stata, serve as step-by-step guides for completing the "In Focus" exercises in Privitera's core text.
