I vote for Howell as well. I use it frequently. It is a little tough
for some students (though not as tough as, say, Hayes), but it's got
the beef you'll need. Howell also has the best material on effect sizes
and power of any textbook I've seen.

For completeness, go with Howell. For clarity (from
the students' perspectives) I'd look at Heiman (the combined
method/stats text -- the stats-only version doesn't go far enough
beyond one-way ANOVA, and it never hurts to reiterate that research
designs come from statistical models). Heiman is the only text I've
ever used in any class that spontaneously generates "this is a good
book" sorts of comments from the students. My only complaint is that
he doesn't really use good notation for the more complex designs, and
instead uses words rather than symbols.

Hi everyone,
I've been offered a section of Intermediate Statistics at one
of the CSUs. I have taught the intro course, including one-way ANOVA
and simple regression, for about 8 years. I took a decently taught
ANOVA course and very poorly taught course in Regression &
Correlation in graduate school. Once upon a time I could do a two-level
factorial ANOVA by hand.
So I am looking for a recommendation for a good text with
sufficient practice problems (that's the way I teach. I will also want
them to do work by hand before we use SPSS). CSU may have a book picked
out (Howell is the one on my sample syllabus) but I'd like to know what
alternatives exist. Also, for my own sake, as I intend to spend part of
the winter break refreshing my skills in this area.
I learn/remember best by doing, so I really appreciate
recommendations of books (and online sources for that matter) that
provide actual practice problems.
Thanks and good luck to everyone finishing the term.
