Statistical Applications in Criminal Justice introduces basic
statistical concepts in a "cookbook" approach to guide math-scared
students to an understanding of the utility and value of
statistical analysis. Using examples drawn entirely from law and
criminal justice research, the authors provide a user-friendly text
for undergraduate and statistically naive graduate students of
criminal justice. Vito and Latessa begin with an introduction to
simple mathematical notation and proceed into a discussion of the
theoretical bases of statistics--with particular attention paid to
probability, sampling, and hypothesis testing. Once the student has
developed a firm mastery of these basic tools, the authors present
some basic statistical techniques commonly used in criminal justice
research--t-tests, correlations, simple regression, ANOVA, and
measures of association. Sample problems are provided to assist the
student step-by-step through the application of these techniques.
Uniquely written for criminal justice students, this book would be
an appropriate supplement to accompany a longer research methods or
statistics text. In addition, professionals who wish to brush up on
their skills would find its self-teaching features useful.
