978-1-61290-603-4


"JMP for Basic Univariate and Multivariate Statistics: Methods for Researchers and Social Scientists, Second Edition is not only a manual that assists the reader with the use of SAS JMP software application, but it also leads to a better understanding of the basic research and analyses concepts and procedures. I was particularly impressed with the book's discussion and guidance in the computation of effect size, an analysis that has become quite popular in education and other fields in the last few years."

"This book provides working professionals with the combined benefit of foundational statistics learning and hands-on practice with the versatile JMP software. The chapter on Principal Components Analysis is a great example of how concepts are first explained in basic terms and followed by step by step instructions to produce a visually rich output analysis that enables discovery of patterns in the data. This book is a great resource for data analysts, scientists, and engineers alike."
