We require SPSS
I believe exposing students to some sophisticated statistical package prepares
them to encounter it in graduate school. I expect that any student admitted to
a thesis-oriented Masters or doctoral program will have the ability to learn
some other statistical package, and this exposure helps them
To start with, this is what I use in my course:

We fight to keep SPSS because upwards of 90% of our graduates continue on with
a grad program, and even if it's not a PhD program, they are almost always
required to do

Hi all.
Can you guys and gilrs who do methods and stats let me know what text
books you find best for these courses?
Also, is there a good resource for conducting a 1 credit lab that
would focus on SPSS techniques?
It would be great to get your recomendations.

This is a tough question that we've been discussing for the past year or more.
It depends so much on your goals for your RM courses, what kind of preparation
you expect your students to have, and where you are trying to take them.
There are a lot of good books out there, but there is huge

Hi all

This SPSS website has resources for both students and instructors. There are
tutorials (short videos) and links to data sets as well as user sites. It is
a very nice collection.

To teach SPSS in Stats lab, I have been using SPSS for Windows Step by Step
and I've been generally satisfied with it. However, given all of the resources
available on the web, I am thinking of not using a book for this portion of the

I've never understood the methods first rationale, and argued strongly about 20
years ago for stats first, which we have had since. My reasoning:

Yes...I'm not sure how to go about it. It would seem that, ideally,
they would be taught together as I think Marc Carter was arguing.
Maybe I can
When I had it in college, there were two 4-credit courses: Research Design and
Analysis I and II. Talk about a method and the stats that go with it. Move on
to the next method and the stats that go with it. And so on. I liked that set
up a lot.

We had a similar sequence at ASU. The first class focused on
non-experimental/correlational research and the second class
focused on experimental research designs and analysis. Both
classes had a pre-req introductory stat class that was taught in
the math department. Success in Research
