Häufig werden wir Psychologiestudenten an den Unis mit schlechten, schwer verständlichen Skripten und Vorlesungen zum Thema Statistik gequält, die meist überhaupt keinen Zusammenhang zum Studienziel erkennen lassen.
Da wird oft von Urnen, Würfeln, Parteien, etc. etc. geredet. Howell macht dies zum Glück anders und ist daher in der Lage, Statistik auch "Mathefaulen" näher zu bringen. Der Schreibstil ist dabei sehr angenehm, sodass ich auch heute noch oft darin blättere.
Die Erklärungen sind zudem leicht nachvollziehbar und der Autor verzichtet, wo er nur kann, auf komplizierte Formeln und deren Herleitung. Daher ist das Buch vor allem für jemanden zu empfehlen, der ein Nachschlagewerk sucht, in dem er schnell Dinge nachschauen kann, die in der Vorlesung zu kompliziert erscheinen.
Zur reinen Übung des Wissens ist es hingegen nur bedingt empfehlenswert, weil kaum Aufgaben enthalten sind. Die Aufgaben, die enthalten sind, beziehen sich überwiegend auf reines Verständnis. Für Übungsaufgaben kann ich "Elementary Statistics" von Larson&Farber empfehlen.
Mittlerweile gebe ich selbst Statistikkurse und verweise immer wieder gerne auf dieses Buch!

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazon - pay your taxes!
Verified PurchaseI pay taxes because I believe I should pay appropriately for my family's education, safety, helath and so on. You make millions out of the people in this country, and you have made a fair amount from my purchases but yet you pay far too little tax if any. Just why is this and can your company live with this; can it bear the burden of the bad name it is gradually getting?
