'The best SPSS book... Every student should have a copy!' - Dr James Jackson, Associate Senior Lecturer, Leeds Trinity & All Saints, UK
'This is the clearest guide to using SPSS I have found – the step-by-step framework provides an easy to follow overview, as well as more in-depth explanation for those who need it. From the very simple to the more complex, this text is ideal for all levels of an undergraduate degree and beyond.' - Dr Fhionna Moore, Lecturer in Psychology, University of Abertay Dundee, UK
'Student-friendly and clear, this is an excellent introductory text.' – Diane Wildbur, Lecturer in Psychology, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK
'An invaluable resource for students… well written and appropriately illustrated.' – Costas Karageorghis, Reader in Sport Psychology, Brunel University, UK

The book also offers helpful guidance on the conventions of reporting statistical results, and this fourth edition is further strengthened by the inclusion of new material on data exploration and graphing.' – Dr Alistair Harvey, Lecturer in Psychology, University of Winchester
'...I would recommend the book to anyone who is doing research which involves statistical analysis. The text is clear and easy to understand, and also highly informative and I can confidently say it is one which I will be frequently referring to in the foreseeable future.' PsyPag Quarterly
