All of the examples used to explain the use of statistics in educational research are taken from the field of education and serve to illustrate the various concepts, terms, statistical tests, and data interpretations that are discussed in the book.

Review exercises are included at the end of the book to allow readers to practice and apply their newly-acquired knowledge and skills.
