Multiple Regression by Paul D Allison

Multiple Regression by Paul D Allison

Multiple regression is at the heart of social science data analysis, because it deals with explanations and correlations. This book is a complete introduction to this statistical method.

"I find the concept for this approach to teaching undergraduate research methods and statistics innovative and excitingThe idea of ‘core’ texts supplemented by satellite volumes covering specific, important topics makes absolute sense." 

-- Barbara Heyl
