Statistical models: Theory and practice
Freedman David A.
Statistical models: Theory and practice - New York Cambridge university press 2009 - xi, 442p. Includes bibliographical reference and index
This lively and engaging textbook explains the things you have to know in order to read empirical papers in the social and health sciences, as well as the techniques you need to build statistical models of your own. The author, David A. Freedman, explains the basic ideas of association and regression, and takes you through the current models that link these ideas to causality. The focus is on applications of linear models, including generalized least squares and two-stage least squares, with probits and logits for binary variables.
