Description:

Statistics for Criminology and Criminal Justice is an introductory-level text for criminology and criminal justice statistics courses. The topics and presentation style are targeted to students who have a basic background in algebra but who have little or no exposure to the study of statistics. The content is presented in a sequential fashion. It begins with descriptive statistics, moves into probability and distributions, and ends with bivariate hypothesis testing and an introduction to regression. Emphasis is placed on balancing thoroughness with ease of understanding in order to show students the importance of statistics in the practice and study of criminal justice and criminology.
