Peck and Olsen's INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS AND DATA ANALYSIS, 7th Edition empowers students to think statistically by focusing on conceptual understanding, real data usage and interpretation and communication of statistical information.

In this edition, data and examples have been carefully selected to emphasize diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB), ensuring a comprehensive learning experience for all. Additionally, new "What Do You Think?" questions encourage students to reflect and connect concepts to real-world situations.

Aligned with the GAISE (Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education) college report and informed by student learning research, the text highlights the application of concepts to students and their surroundings.

Peck, Short, and Olsen's INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS AND DATA ANALYSIS, 6th Edition stresses interpretation and communication of statistical information through hands-on, activity based learning using real data in order to get you thinking statistically. This 6th Edition contains new sections on randomization-based inference: bootstrap methods for simulation-based confidence intervals and randomization tests of hypotheses. These new sections are accompanied by online Shiny apps, which can be used to construct bootstrap confidence intervals and to carry out randomization tests. In addition, a new visualization tool at statistics.cengage.com will help you understand these new concepts. WebAssign for Statistics accompanies this text. Designed by educators, WebAssign helps you learn not just do homework. WebAssign grants access to the ebook, assessments and analytics to enable you to be a self-sufficient learner and help you succeed in your course.
