Author Description

This book provides a thorough overview of regression analysis and the analysis of variance and covariance, foundational research methods in social and behavioral sciences. Dr. von Eye and Wiedermann, the authors, have decades of experience training graduate students on these methods and conducting research. Each chapter has a specific learning objective and methodically progresses toward more complex subjects. In addition, the latest methodological developments in causal inference and computationally intensive approaches are well integrated, which should greatly interest any social and behavioral scientists who want to stay abreast of the current state-of-the-art methods. This advanced graduate-level textbook is well-organized, up-to-date, and in-depth while still being understandable, with data examples and key takeaways. As someone involved in training graduate students in social and behavioral sciences, I am excited to use and recommend this book.
