Fundamentals of Behavioral Statistics

I was a student of Audrey Haber's back in 1968.....not only did she teach a mathematical meat-head how to understand the basics of Behavioral Statistics, but she gave me the confidence to dive into other scholastic areas that I deemed myself "weak". This book which I have owned for 40 years is a classic, easy to read and understand. Who would have guessed that statistics could be interesting and even fun!!!

I bought my copy 40 years ago, and, this is the finest statistics book ever written (I've read them all). It actually "teaches" statistics and fulfills the authors' mission stated in their preface. I now consult to a major University on this topic, and, it is here by my side, just in case. Jack Sandweiss, MA

Great for those trying to get the basic understanding of behavioral statistics. The wording is very plain and easy to understand, yet they also don't ramble. The index works well, and the appendices are highly useful.

I am using this book for an online graduate statistics course, so there is little direction from a formal instructor. All of my information so far is from this book. It is easy to read and the examples are easy to follow. I would recommend this book to anyone who is beginning the journey into statistics...very helpful

A unique introductory book in statistics. The hallmark of this book is nodoubt the clarity of detailed explanations of fundamental statistical concepts. A lot of invaluable material and explanantions here not to be found in other textbooks on statistics!Highlights that spring to my mind are the excellent treatments of averages, correlation and regression, and hypothesis testing. A very important topic (usually missing in most textbooks) is the strength of evidence in hypothesis and significiance testing and is treated very nicely in various parts of the books. This book should not be missed by beginners (and probably experts) in the field.
