Arising from the Cohens' work on the epidemiology of childhood
psychopathology, this book explores the two aspects of motivational
structure--ideas and values--that underlie the development of
maladaptive functioning and symptoms. The first aspect is a measure
of what children admire in their peers; this measure is seen as an
operationalization of personal ideals. The second is a measure of
life goals, seen as a representation of the contemporary structure
of long-term personal values. Despite the considerable amount of
attention given in the popular press and among social critics and
politicians, values have been relatively neglected as a topic of
empirical research in this country. To fill the void, this work
uses data from a large cohort of young people who have been studied
longitudinally since early childhood to elucidate three aspects of
life goals and values: * What are the demographic, family, peer,
school, and intrapersonal influences that shape values and life
goals of adolescents? * How do they change over the course of
adolescence? * What impact do these values have on the lives of
adolescents and young adults? Decisions about what we find most
admirable and which of the many apparently good things in life we
will take on as our top priorities are consequential both for the
contemporary and for the future emotional and behavioral well-being
of the individual. Thus, this book explores systematically the
environmental origins of ideals and values, using deprivation and
attainment hypotheses to examine a variety of influences on the
development of differences in values. This book also examines the
relationship between the measures of children's values and
psychopathology, examining both the "Axis 1" diagnosis, including
disruptive behavior disorders, depression, and anxiety, and the
"Axis 2" personality disorders. Providing an extensive study of the
life values of adolescents and the state of their mental health,
this monograph will be of interest to developmental psychologists
specializing in adolescence, child clinical psychologists, and
psychiatrists.

Applied Multiple Regression/Correlation Analysis for the Behavioral
Sciences is the classic text on multiple regression. It is noted
for its non-mathematical, applied, and data-analytic approach
intended to teach the reader "how to do it." Students and
researchers profit from its verbal-conceptual exposition and
frequent use of concrete examples. The applied emphasis provides
clear illustrations of the principles and provides worked examples
of the types of applications that are possible. Researchers learn
how to specify regression models that directly address their
research questions of interest. Early in the text an overview of
the fundamental ideas of multiple regression and a review of
bivariate correlation and regression and other elementary
statistical concepts provide a strong foundation for a solid
understanding of the rest of the text. The third edition reflects
both the current and developing state-of-the-art practices in the
field: *An increased emphasis on graphics provides greater
understanding of data. *An increased emphasis on the use of
confidence intervals and effect size measures provides more
information about the size and precision of relationships. *An
accompanying CD contains data for most of the numerical examples
along with the computer code for SPSS, SAS, and SYSTAT. These
computer scripts can serve as templates for the analysis of the
student's own data. *Five entirely new chapters are included:
Assumptions of the regression model and remedies when they are not
met (Ch. 4), detection and treatment of the potential problems of
outliers and multicollinearity (Ch. 10), alternative regression
models that may be used when the dependent variable is binary,
ordered category, or count in form, including logistic, ordinal
logistic, Poisson regression, and the generalized linear model (Ch.
13), multilevel models for data collected in groups or other
clusters (Ch. 14), and the analysis of longitudinal data (Ch. 15).

This non-technical guide to power analysis in research planning
provides users of applied statistics with the tools they need for
more effective analysis. Expanded and updated, the book uses the
same approach and organization as the previous edition, but
includes a chapter covering power analysis in set correlation and
multivariate methods, a chapter considering the effect size,
psychometric reliability and the efficacy of qualifying dependent
variables, and expanded power and sample size tables for multiple
regression/correlation.
