A Step–by–Step Approach to Using SAS for Univariate and Multivariate Statistics

One in a series of books co–published with SAS, this book provides a user–friendly introduction to both the SAS system and elementary statistical procedures for researchers and students in the Social Sciences. This Second Edition, updated to cover version 9 of the SAS software, guides readers step by step through the basic concepts of research and data analysis, to data input, and on to ANOVA (analysis of variance) and MANOVA (multivariate analysis of variance).
