Methods and Applications of Linear Models: Regression and the Analysis of Variance

by Ronald R. Hocking

A popular statistical text now updated and better than ever! The ready availability of high-speed computers and statistical software encourages the analysis of ever larger and more complex problems while at the same time increasing the likelihood of improper usage. That is why it is increasingly important to educate end users in the correct interpretation of the methodologies involved. Now in its second edition, Methods and Applications of Linear Regression and the Analysis of Variance seeks to more effectively address the analysis of such models through several important changes. Notable in this new As in the First Edition, the author presents a thorough treatment of the concepts and methods of linear model analysis, and illustrates them with various numerical and conceptual examples, using a data-based approach to development and analysis. Data sets, available on an FTP site, allow readers to apply analytical methods discussed in the book.
