The new edition of this bestselling guide to SPSS carefully leads the user through the process of using SPSS to analyze psychological data. As with previous editions, the third edition retains the breadth of coverage, clear writing and flexibility that has made it such a popular companion for students at all levels. It covers SPSS version 13 as well as 12, and draws attention to the main ways in which these versions differ from earlier versions, has an all-new chapter on time series analysis and new coverage of reliability measures, partial correlations, and using statistics for scale constructions.
