Synopsis

An introduction to quantitative economic research. Copyright 1985 Preface: This book is designed to serve as the text for a one-semester beginning course in economic or business statistics. The number of similar books currently available is large, and, since all are intended for the same purpose, the amount of material in common is necessarly substantial. This book differs from the others, then, not so much in content as in its basic organization and method of exposition. In that it is sufficiently novel to merit a few words of explaination. Contents: Summarizing a Large Quantity of Data; Tables and Charts, Summarizing a Large Quanity of Data: Statistics, The Use of Samples: Statistical Inference, Exploring Statistical Functions, Significance Tests, The Function as an EquationI: Simple Linear Regression, The Function as an Equation II: Simple Curvilinear Regression by Transformation of Variables, Time Series, Aggregation and Index Numbers
