Description The Eleventh Edition of this highly-regarded introductory text emphasizes inference and sound decision-making through its extensive coverage of data collection and analysis. McClave develops statistical thinking and teaches students to properly assess the credibility of inferences—from the vantage point of both the consumer and the producer.
This edition incorporates more exercises and more visual features, such as redesigned end-of-chapter summaries and an increased use of applets. This text assumes a mathematical background of basic algebra. Classic, yet contemporary. Theoretical, yet applied. This text offers a trusted, comprehensive introduction to statistics that emphasizes inference and integrates real data throughout. The authors stress the development of statistical thinking, the assessment of credibility, and value of the inferences made from data.
The Eleventh Edition infuses a new focus on ethics, which is critically important when working with statistical data.
Chapter Summaries have a new, study-oriented design, helping students stay focused when preparing for exams. Data, exercises, technology support, and Statistics in Action cases are updated throughout the book. McClave and Sincich provide support to students when they are learning to solve problems and when they are studying and reviewing the material.
Some students have difficulty learning the mechanics of statistical techniques while applying the techniques to real applications. For this reason, exercise sections are divided into four parts:.
Case studies, applications, and biographies keep students motivated and show the relevance of statistics. Support for statistical software is integrated throughout the text and online, so instructors can focus less time on teaching the software and more time teaching statistics. All data files are available as. The CD also contains Chapter 14, Nonparametric Statistics, and a set of appletsthat allowstudents to run simulations that visually demonstrate some of the difficult statistical concepts e.

Applying the Concepts — Basic are based on applications taken from a wide variety of sources. These short exercises with smaller data sets help students begin developing the skills necessary to diagnose and analyze real-world problems. Applying the Concepts—Intermediate are based on more detailed real-world applications; these exercises require students to apply their knowledge of the technique presented in the section.
Applying the Concepts—Advanced are more difficult real-data exercises and require students to use their growing knowledge and developing critical thinking skills. Critical Thinking Challenges present students with one or two challenging real-life problems. These appear at the end of the Supplementary Exercises section. New to This Edition. Most are based on contemporary business-related studies and use real data, and they foster and promote critical thinking skills.
New Statistics in Action and Making Business Decisions cases help students apply the concepts to the real world. Five of the fourteen Statistics in Action cases are new, each based on real data from a recent business study. The authors have also added a new Making Business Decisions case after Chapter These were titled Real-World Case in previous editions.
Ethics in Statistics discussions have been added in every chapter to emphasize the importance of ethical behavior when using statistics to collect, interpret, and report on data. These boxes provide students with reminders of how to apply sound statistical methodology and to recognize when unethical practices are employed.
Updated Using Technology sections at the end of each chapter have been streamlined into easy-to-use steps. Redesigned end-of-chapter summaries turn this text into a useful study tool. End-of-chapter Notes have been redesigned for improved readability and reference.
Important points are reinforced through flowcharts which aid students in selecting the appropriate statistical method , and Key Terms, Key Symbols and Formulas. Updated data sets ensure that students are working with the most current numbers available. Content-specific Updates Additional probability coverage in Chapter 4 Random Variables and Probability Distributions : At the request of reviewers, the authors have added back material on two probability distributions—hypergeometric and exponential distributions.
For pedagogical purposes, the chapter has been organized into three parts: Discrete Random Variables the binomial, Poisson, and hypergeometric distributions , Continuous Random Variables the normal, uniform, and exponential distributions , and Random Variables based on Sampling Distributions.
Chapter 5 Inferences Based on a Single Sample: Estimation with Confidence Intervals : The methodology for finding a confidence interval for a population mean is developed based on using either a normal z statistic Section 5.
This change lets instructors emphasize the theory behind confidence intervals while providing the flexibility of focusing on whether the sample is large or small. Chapter 6 Inferences Based on a Single Sample: Tests of Hypothesis now includes a new section emphasizing the formulation of the null and alternative hypotheses Section 6.
Chapter 10 Simple Linear Regression : To streamline the chapter, the authors have combinedand refined several sections from the previous edition. Table of Contents 1. Statistics, Data, and Statistical Thinking 1.
