\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIntermediate Statistical Investigations\u003c/i\u003e\u0026#8239;provides\u0026#8239;a unified framework for explaining variation across study designs and variable types, helping students increase their statistical literacy and appreciate the indispensable role of statistics in scientific research.\u0026#8239;Requiring only a single introductory statistics course as a prerequisite,\u0026#8239;the program\u0026#8239;uses the\u0026#8239;immersive, simulation-based inference\u0026#8239;approach\u0026#8239;for which the\u0026#8239;author team is known.Students engage with various aspects of data collection and analysis using real examples and clear explanations designed\u0026#8239;to\u0026#8239;strengthen\u0026#8239;multivariable\u0026#8239;understanding and reinforce first-course concepts. \u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach chapter contains in-depth exercises\u0026#8239;which\u0026#8239;follow a consistent\u0026#8239; six-step statistical exploration and investigation method (ask a research question, design a study, explore the data, draw inferences, formulate conclusions, and look back and ahead) enabling students to assess a variety of concepts in a single assignment. Challenging questions based on research articles strengthen critical reading skills, fully worked examples demonstrate\u0026#8239;essential\u0026#8239;concepts and methods, and engaging visualizations illustrate key themes of explained variation. End-of-chapter investigations use real data from popular culture\u0026#8239;and published research studies\u0026#8239;in\u0026#8239;a variety of disciplines, exposing students to various applications of statistics in the real world.\u0026#8239;Throughout the text, user-friendly\u0026#8239;Rossman Chance\u0026#8239;web applets allow students to conduct\u0026#8239;the\u0026#8239;simulations and analyses covered in the book.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c/p\u003e |
