Just Plain Data Analysis teaches students statistical literacy
skills that they can use to evaluate and construct arguments about
public affairs issues grounded in numerical evidence. The book
addresses skills that are often not taught in introductory social
science research methods courses and that are often covered
sketchily in the research methods textbooks: where to find commonly
used measures of political and social conditions; how to assess the
reliability and validity of specific indicators; how to present
data efficiently in charts and tables; how to avoid common
misinterpretations and misrepresentations of data; and how to
evaluate causal arguments based on numerical data. With a new
chapter on statistical fallacies and updates throughout the text,
the new edition teaches students how to find, interpret, and
present commonly used social indicators in an even clearer and more
practical way.
