The goal of EXPRESS STATISTICS, using a quantitative approach, is to assist public administrators, educators, students, and research practitioners in finding solutions to everyday real-world problems without being burdened with complicated formulas, calculations, and other mundane activities associated with conducting research. Notwithstanding the hassle-free presentation, the book and software include all of the pertinent statistical concepts from basic rudimentary statistics to multivariate analysis.
The discussions include the assumptions of the targeted statistics, coupled with a well-developed research issue. The emphasis is on the underlining assumptions and purpose of a particular statistic, not statistical computations. Statistical applications are tools. The key is to know when and how to use a particular tool.
The companion software is easy to use, self-prompting, interactive, and menu-driven, with clear and straightforward explanations. The learning curve is less than an hour. The tables, charts, and graphical depictions are complete, including all of the necessary statistical information needed for dissemination. Also, for immediate use and portability, the tables, charts, and graphics can be saved, available for retrieval directly into theses, dissertations, research projects, and other documents.
