Hi Marta,
I am interested in buying the following books "Statistics at Square One"
and "Research Methods II: Multivariate Analysis" .

I will be happy if you can advice on where I could get them.

Regards.

Hi everybody:

Since a lot of questions to this list concern theoretical issues, I
thought that these links could be interesting for a lot of people. The
first one reviews basic stats, while the second focuses on more
advanced methods.

Statistics at Square One
=========================
1 Data display and summary
2 Mean and standard deviation
3 Populations and samples
4 Statements of probability and confidence intervals
5 Differences between means: type I and type II errors and power
6 Differences between percentages and paired alternatives
7 The t tests
8 The chi-squared tests
9 Exact probabilty test
10 Rank score tests
11 Correlation and regression
12 Survival analysis
13 Study design and choosing a statistical test

Available as on-line book (HTML) at:
http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/collections/statsbk/index.shtml

SPSS syntax code (written by me and kindly hosted by King Douglas) for
the book exercises and examples is available at:
http://www.kingdouglas.com/SPSS/DiverseCultures/Marta/Code/BMJ%20-%20Stats%20Square%20One.txt
(if the link is broken in two by my mail program, copy and paste both
pieces together...)

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Research Methods II: Multivariate Analysis
============================================
Chapter 1: The Scientific Method
Chapter 2: Simple Linear Regression
Chapter 3: Multiple Regression Analysis
Chapter 4: Multiple Regression in Practice
Chapter 5: Regression Diagnostics
Chapter 6: Analysis of Cross-Sectional Studies
Chapter 7: One-way Analysis of Variance
Chapter 8: Two-way Analysis of Variance
Chapter 9: Factorial Designs
Chapter 10: Repeat-measures Designs
Chapter 11: Logistic Regression
Chapter 12: Survival Analysis
Chapter 13: Poisson Regression Analysis
Chapter 14: Analysing Categorical Data: Log-linear analysis

Available as on-line book (PDF) at:

http://www.oxfordjournals.org/tropej/online/ma.html
(they also have a collection of PowerPoint slides for each chapter)

Although I haven't written SPSS code for the second book (I just
discovered it today!), give me some time and (after my holidays), I'll
have it available.


I hope you find them useful.

Marta
