This book comprehensively covers all the methods of parametric and nonparametric statistics such as correlation and regression, analysis of variance, test construction, one-sample test to k-sample tests, etc. The two methods of statistics are presented simultaneously, with indication of their use in data analysis. Through adequate knowledge of both techniques, readers can select the appropriate method of testing as well as the graphical method for representing the data.-- This unique textbook guides students and researchers of social sciences to successfully apply the knowledge of parametric and nonparametric statistics in the collection and analysis of data.
