About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book explores statistical concepts in relation to the field of neuropsychology. The purpose is to provide a simple, conceptually straightforward explanation of statistical analyses. Although specifically targeted at neuropsychologists, the statistical concepts would be useful to anyone in the social sciences or medicine. … Each chapter is well organized, brief, and practical. … This useful overview of common statistical methods in neuropsychology and related fields contains practical guidance for carrying out the analyses that will best serve readers familiar with statistics … .” (Christopher J. Graver, Doody’s Review Service, September, 2012)
“David Maroof in Statistical Methods in Neuropsychology: Common Procedures Made Comprehensible attempts to cover briefly a few statistical topics that are commonly used in neuropsychology … . Maroof is to be commended for his attempts to cover a very large amount of material in less than 100 pages. Further, this text is accessible, and students may find value in using Statistical Methods in Neuropsychology: Common Procedures Made Comprehensible to supplement more fully developed articles and texts that deal with neuropsychology and statistics.” (Thomas D. Parsons, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 58 (14), April, 2013)
