Most importantly, each chapter follows the format of (1) understanding SPSS Statistics output(s), (2) formatting for research reports, and (3) interpreting the SPSS output. This gives the user a thorough understanding of each analysis presented in the book. In some chapters, references are given to published articles to see additional examples.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause of these unique features, the book can be used as a self-guided manual in hybrid or online courses or as a textbook in an in-person introductory statistics course at undergraduate or graduate levels.
