Statistics for Social Workers: Essential Concepts provides students
with a reader friendly introduction to statistics and an engaging
exploration of how statistics can enrich their future social work
practice. The text is practical and conceptual in nature, focusing
less on mathematical computation and more on the general
information and skill sets that will prove beneficial in
professional work. The text demonstrates how statistics can help
students understand relevant social issues and obtain insights to
their clients' problems by looking at data. Readers learn
statistics can bring to light trends and needs in their
communities, provide them with information they can use in funding
applications, aid in their own development of client and staff
reports, and enhance their overall practice. Dedicated chapters
cover ethical considerations, measures of central tendency, normal
distribution, inferential statistics, hypothesis testing,
correlation, selecting the appropriate statistical test, and more.
Throughout the text, excerpts from real-world studies, review
problems for students, and potential assignments facilitate deep
learning and practical application. Designed to demystify
statistics for students and help them develop into evidence-based
practitioners, Statistics for Social Workers is an ideal resource
for social work students.
