5.0 out of 5 stars Statistical Methods for Health Care Research, May 31, 2003

smartnurse123 (Slidell, LA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Statistical Methods for Health Care Research (Book with Diskette for Windows) (Paperback)

A very well-written and helpful statistics book. It was required reading for a course in Quantitative Nursing Research last semester. Overall, the concepts such as t-tests, correlation and regression were explained in relatively simple terms. Examples with answers were found at the end of each chapter and the book came with a data disk. This was the most user-friendly statistics book that I have used so far!

Rebecca Kleinschmidt "Rebecca" (Ketchikan, AK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Statistical Methods for Health Care Research (Paperback)

This book is written for PhD level students. It is not an easy read, even for someone who has had statistics before. I would not recommend this text to anyone except experienced statistics students.
