The fourth edition of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences by award-winning author Gregory Privitera aims to not only inspire students to use statistics properly to better understand the world around them, but also to develop the skills to be lab-ready in applied research settings. Using examples from current, relatable research throughout the text, Privitera shows students that statistics can be relevant, interesting, and accessible. The latest edition gives students a greater awareness of the best practices of analysis in the behavioral sciences, with a focus on transparency in recording, managing, analyzing, and interpreting data. All data sets for null hypothesis significance testing satisfy the assumptions for those tests. Updates for the 7th edition of APA style are integrated throughout, especially in APA in Focus sections for reporting results.


Expanded features help students better organize their learning experiences. IBM (R) SPSS (R) in Focus sections, updated to version 27, now follow three steps, Data Entry, Evaluating Assumptions, and Computing the Test, meaning students can move logically from hand calculations to software while incorporating best practices. Step-by-step example problems continue to walk students through the decision tree of analysis, with additional explanations and Making Sense sections providing students with in-depth breakdowns of the most challenging content. Now with over 1,000 author-developed and classroom-tested problems, the text provides students with ample opportunities to practice and check their knowledge. Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences connects students with statistics in a way that reflects not only what best practices are, but also how and why we apply them.
