商品描述

Multivariate Analysis for the Behavioral Sciences, Second Edition is designed to show how a variety of statistical methods can be used to analyse data collected by psychologists and other behavioral scientists. Assuming some familiarity with introductory statistics, the book begins by briefly describing a variety of study designs used in the behavioral sciences, and the concept of models for data analysis. The contentious issues of p-values and confidence intervals are also discussed in the introductory chapter.

After describing graphical methods, the book covers regression methods, including simple linear regression, multiple regression, locally weighted regression, generalized linear models, logistic regression, and survival analysis. There are further chapters covering longitudinal data and missing values, before the last seven chapters deal with multivariate analysis, including principal components analysis, factor analysis, multidimensional scaling, correspondence analysis, and cluster analysis.



Features:





  • Presents an accessible introduction to multivariate analysis for behavioral scientists


  • Contains a large number of real data sets, including cognitive behavioral therapy, crime rates, and drug usage


  • Includes nearly 100 exercises for course use or self-study


  • Supplemented by a GitHub repository with all datasets and R code for the examples and exercises


  • Theoretical details are separated from the main body of the text


  • Suitable for anyone working in the behavioral sciences with a basic grasp of statistics

商品描述(中文翻譯)

行為科學的多變量分析(第二版)》旨在展示各種統計方法如何用於分析心理學家和其他行為科學家收集的數據。假設讀者對入門統計學有一定的了解,本書首先簡要描述了行為科學中使用的各種研究設計,以及數據分析模型的概念。引言章節中還討論了

-值和信賴區間的爭議性問題。

在描述圖形方法後,本書涵蓋了回歸方法,包括簡單線性回歸、多元回歸、局部加權回歸、廣義線性模型、邏輯回歸和生存分析。接下來的章節涵蓋了縱向數據和缺失值,最後七個章節則處理多變量分析,包括主成分分析、因子分析、多維尺度分析、對應分析和聚類分析。



特色:







  • 為行為科學家提供易於理解的多變量分析入門




  • 包含大量真實數據集,包括認知行為療法、犯罪率和藥物使用情況




  • 包括近100個練習題,適用於課程使用或自學




  • 附有GitHub 資源庫,提供所有數據集和示例及練習的 R 代碼




  • 理論細節與正文分開




  • 適合對統計學有基本了解的行為科學工作者
