An Introduction to Mathematical Statistics by
The field of statistics focuses on drawing conclusions from data by modeling and analyzing the data using probabilistic models. The authors of this introductory text describe three key concepts from statistics--estimators, tests, and confidence regions--which they demonstrate and apply in an extensive variety of examples and case studies. An entire chapter covers regression models, including linear regression and analysis of variance. This book, designed for students, assumes a basic knowledge of probability theory, calculus, and linear algebra.
Probability, Statistics and Econometrics by
Probability, Statistics and Econometrics provides a concise, yet rigorous, treatment of the field that is suitable for graduate students studying econometrics, very advanced undergraduate students, and researchers seeking to extend their knowledge of the trinity of fields that use quantitative data in economic decision-making. The book covers much of the groundwork for probability and inference before proceeding to core topics in econometrics. Authored by one of the leading econometricians in the field, it is a unique and valuable addition to the current repertoire of econometrics textbooks and reference books.
Statistics by
The Eleventh Edition of this highly-regarded introductory text emphasizes inference and sound decision-making through its extensive coverage of data collection and analysis. McClave develops statistical thinking and teaches students to properly assess the credibility of inferences-from the vantage point of both the consumer and the producer. This edition incorporates more exercises and more visual features, such as redesigned end-of-chapter summaries and an increased use of applets. This text assumes a mathematical background of basic algebra.
Understanding Basic Statistics by
A condensed and more streamlined version of Brase and Brase's bestselling UNDERSTANDABLE STATISTICS, Tenth Edition, this book offers an effective way to learn the essentials of statistics, including early coverage of regression, within a more limited time frame. Designed to help learners overcome their apprehension about statistics, UNDERSTANDING BASIC STATISTICS, Sixth Edition, provides plenty of guidance and informal advice demonstrating the links between statistics and the real world. Thorough yet abbreviated, the text offers a reader-friendly style and a new, complete technology package to supplement learning. The use of the graphing calculator, Microsoft® Excel®, MINITAB®, and SPSS is covered but not required.
