Clear explanations and nice visuals. This book would possibly serve as a nice supplementary text in a course in which another book with more theoretical information about the methods. I didn't adopt because the book doesn't include the nonparametric methods I am required to teach.
Excellent book for my students
like Salkind better
Course being retooled - but this book may be a possibility for the future.
More detail than I need
Compared to other potential texts, this book is an easy read that is less intimidating, but contains much of the same information. The availability of data files and PowerPoint slides from the author's website facilitated the understanding of complex numerical concepts that can be somewhat challenging.
At this time this book is still being reviewed by faculty
This is a helpful book. However, for my graduate students, I have decided that over time, Andy Field's work will remain a solid reference for whatever analyses they encounter or forgot completely and need to review how to conduct and write up results.
Looks helpful in teaching SPSS
Not cast at the right level for my needs.
Too advanced for our students. But it is a very well-designed and written book.
This would be used as more of an adjunct to students in famililarizing themselves with SPSS in social science. Possible use as a recommended text.
When individual graduate students are using SPSS for their statistical analysis, then I require them to purchase this text. It is easy to understand and concepts have been explained well. Also, this text is helpful for students in interpreting their statistical results.
