Analysis of Multivariate Social Science Data, 2nd edn

摘要

On the first day of a seminar on intermediate social statistics for first-year graduate students that I sometimes teach, I would tell the class that 1 could cover all the relevant statistical topics of interest to them in one session or I could focus on just a single method during the entire 15-week semester though I would prefer to use the time to have them learn a small number of useful statistical methods. Invariably, none of the students would be happy with either extreme approach, and they would go for the 'happy median".
