Quantitative Models in Psychology

Beschreibung

Using the organizing principle that quantitative methods are the building blocks of models, this book focuses on models of inference, models of measurement, and the modelling of psychological phenomena. With clear prose and a reader-friendly format, McGrath introduces a conceptual framework for the entire spectrum of quantitative modelling procedures used in psychology while providing a solid grounding in its methods and practices.
