Research Methods and Statistics: A Critical Thinking Approach

For many college students, statistical collection, analysis, and writing a data-driven report can seem to be an overwhelming task. Professors often gloss over critical points and dance through a statistics curriculum as if students actually understand or follow what is being said. Statistics can be one of the hardest courses in the curriculum if you aren't armed with the right textbook. This book was written primarily for the research methods course psychology majors must complete. When I was in Elementary Statistics I turned to this book again and again for the guidance and help I desperately needed. Dr. Sherri L. Jackson's "Research Methods: A Critical Thinking Approach" is a phenomenal textbook! I wouldn't have passed Statistics or Research Methods without it. I enjoyed reading this textbook and working through the many exercises, self-tests, and critical thinking reviews. The book gives meanings to unfamiliar terms and breaks down complicated formulas into simple ideas. The book is designed for students to succeed! Dr. Jackson takes a magnanimous and intimidating subject and makes enjoyable to read and work through. If planning to take a research methods course or to go to grad school this is an ultimate resource book to add to your library. I find myself turning to it any time I pursue a research project.

I used this book for a stats class and ended up getting a 4.0. This is a great book for people who want or need to learn statistics.
