Roger Watt is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Stirling. He has spent many years rejecting ‘the system’ and instead is persistently stubborn in doing things his own way. He most enjoys his trumpet, his watercolours, and whatever he has managed to grow in his garden. Statistics for Psychology is the culmination of several years of pushing for change in how statistics should be approached by psychologists and students. Dr Elizabeth Collins is a curious psychology researcher, who has spent many years translating indecipherable and anxiety-inducing statistics jargon to her peers and to her students. A keen world traveller, photographer and bookworm, she fell into statistics accidentally after becoming a peer tutor during her undergraduate studies. She has spent several years contributing heavily to undergraduate statistics teaching,  and hopes Statistics for Psychology can offer a helping hand to researchers worldwide. .

A very good book that provides useful background information for any undergraduate psychology student.
