Statistics for Psychology Research

A Short Guide Using Excel

This book aims to help psychology students build their skills to conduct research and analyses using Microsoft Excel’s Data Analysis Toolpak. Concise yet comprehensive, this accessible textbook walks students through basic research methodology, central tendency, variability, standardized scores, t-tests (independent and related samples), One-way Analysis of Variance (between-groups and repeated measures), the Pearson correlation, and Chi Square analyses. Each chapter includes examples of research questions to be addressed, the rationale for the analysis, a step-by-step analysis of the dataset in equation format and using Microsoft Excel, and how to present results in APA (7th Edition) style.

The extensive didactic material encompasses end-of-chapter questions, learning outcomes, sidebar boxes with common mistakes to avoid, and biographical sketches of those who developed research methods and statistical techniques. Students and instructors will also benefit from a companion website where PowerPoint slides and additional exercises, datasets, and resources are available. Ideal for undergraduate psychology courses, this textbook can also be of use for those interested in learning more about statistical research and its practical application at university and beyond.
