    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Focusing on practical application, this textbook provides clear and concise explanations of statistical tests and techniques that students can apply in real-world situations. It has a dual emphasis: firstly, on doing statistics, and secondly, on understanding statistics, to do away with the mindset that statistics is difficult. Procedural explanations are provided so students know how to apply particular statistical tests and techniques in practical research situations. Conceptual understanding is encouraged to ensure students know not only when and how to apply appropriate techniques, but also why they are using them. Ancillary resources are available including sample answers to exercises, PowerPoint teaching slides, instructor manual, and a test bank. Illustrative figures, real-world data, practice exercises, and software instruction make this an essential resource for mastering statistics for undergraduate and graduate students in the social and behavioral sciences.

    'Social Behavioral Statistics is a user-friendly text designed to make statistics accessible and relatable through the use of humor and a diverse range of examples. The focus on hypothesis testing, along with guidance on using jamovi, a free open-source statistical software program, is especially useful for students interested in conducting research projects.' Deborah Koetzle, John Jay College of Criminal Justice
