Statistics notes to accompany course
Statistical Notes [pdf: 54 pages, 667 kb]
Survey Analysis Workshop (postgraduate, part-time, evening) and Data Management and Analysis (full-time undergraduate) were professional practice-oriented courses in the capture, processing, management and statistical analysis of survey and similar data, taken by students at the Polytechnic of North London from 1976 to 1992.
Originally written by Jim Ring , these notes derive from his teaching the statistical component from 1982 to 1988.
The notes represented an attempt to fill what is even nowadays a gap in textbook provision for students who find computers and statistics daunting, and were mostly written before the appearance of the original and much sought-after SPSS Guide to Data Analysis (Norusis,1987 -1990: later editions relating to e.g. SPSS13 for Windows are less helpful for beginners). They are not intended as a replacement, and should be used in conjuction with the recommended texts. (63 pages, 395kb)
