Through the use of critical thinking questions and data-based exercises, Evan Berman and Xiaohu Wang’s Exercising Essential Statistics helps students apply the techniques described in Essential Statistics for Public Managers and Policy Analysts, Fourth Edition. This accompanying workbook gives students the opportunity to practice these techniques through hands-on, carefully crafted exercises. Various examples are provided from human resource management, organizational behavior, budgeting, and public policy to illustrate how public administrators interact with and analyze data. The workbook′s CD includes seven data sets that cover a range of measures and applications (available in SPSS, SAS, SYSTAT, Stata, and Excel).

Statistics is the body of systematic knowledge and practice that provides standards and procedures for drawing conclusions from one’s data. Statistics includes specific tools for analyzing data, too.

Chapters 1 through 17 correspond to those in the textbook. The “Chapter Objectives” at the beginning of each textbook chapter are a good guide to what you will be practicing in each workbook chapter. To help students understand new concepts, four sections are featured that target different aspects of learning.
