It presents brief explanations of statistical concepts and techniques in simple, everyday language. Each self-contained chapter consists of three sections.

The second section reviews how it works, how to calculate the formula, the strengths and weaknesses of the technique, and the conditions needed for its use. The final section provides examples that use and interpret the statistic. A glossary of terms and symbols is also included. New features in the second edition include:
*An interactive CD with Power point presentations and problems for each chapter including an overview of the problem's solution;
*New chapters on basic research concepts including sampling, definitions of different types of variables, and basic research designs and on nonparametric statistics including the chi square test of independence;
*More graphs and more precise descriptions of each statistic; and
