 Multivariate Analysis for the Social Sciences provides clear guidelines combined with the insight needed to understand the methods and applications of multivariate statistics. This easy-to-follow book provides students in social, behavioral, and health science-whose focus is not primarily in mathematics-with an abundance of chapter-ending questions and answers, including: conceptual questions about the meaning of each method; questions that test the reader's ability to carry out the computational procedures on simple datasets; and data analysis questions for using analytical packages to analyze both simplest case data and also to practice with more realistic datasets.
