Book Sports Research with Analytical Solutions FB2, TXT, PDF
9781119206736 English 1119206731 A step-by-step approach to problem-solving techniques using SPSS(R) in the fields of sports science and physical education Featuring a clear and accessible approach to the methods, processes, and statistical techniques used in sports science and physical education, "Sports Research with Analytical Solution using SPSS(R) "emphasizes how to conduct and interpret a range of statistical analysis using SPSS. The book also addresses issues faced by research scholars in these fields by providing analytical solutions to various research problems without reliance on mathematical rigor. Logically arranged to cover both fundamental and advanced concepts, the book presents standard univariate and complex multivariate statistical techniques used in sports research such as multiple regression analysis, discriminant analysis, cluster analysis, and factor analysis. The author focuses on the treatment of various parametric and nonparametric statistical tests, which are shown through the techniques and interpretations of the SPSS outputs that are generated for each analysis. "Sports Research with Analytical Solution using SPSS(R) "also features: Numerous examples and case studies to provide readers with practical applications of the analytical concepts and techniques Plentiful screen shots throughout to help demonstrate the implementation of SPSS outputs Illustrative studies with simulated realistic data to clarify the analytical techniques covered End-of-chapter short answer questions, multiple choice questions, assignments, and practice exercises to help build a better understanding of the presented concepts A companion website with associated SPSS data files and PowerPoint(R) presentations for each chapter "Sports Research with Analytical Solution using SPSS(R)" is an excellent textbook for upper-undergraduate, graduate, and PhD-level courses in research methods, kinesiology, sports science, medicine, nutrition, health education, and physical education. The book is also an ideal reference for researchers and professionals in the fields of sports research, sports science, physical education, and social sciences, as well as anyone interested in learning SPSS., When conducting research, it is often difficult to identify an appropriate statistical technique that can be used to solve and interpret a research problem and result. This book addresses issues faced by research scholars in the fields of sports science and physical education by providing detailed analytical solutions to various research problems through the use of SPSS. This book provides a crisp, clear, and easy understanding of the methods, processes, and statistical techniques used in sports research. Short answer questions, multiple choice questions, and assignments are included in every chapter as practice exercises for the readers. In addition, case studies aid readers in appreciating the use of the discussed techniques and analyzing research data by using SPSS. The author focuses on the treatment of various parametric and nonparametric statistical tests, which are shown through the techniques and interpretations of SPSS outputs that are generated for each analysis. In addition, topics such as multiple regression analysis, discriminant analysis, cluster analysis, and factor analysis are discussed. Numerous applications and examples within the fields of exercise science and physical education are included throughout to help readers gain a better understanding of the practical situations where the discussed analytical concepts can be implemented. Containing twelve chapters, the book is logically arranged and includes both fundamental and advanced concepts. The first four chapters are devoted to the applications of general statistical techniques, and Chapters 5 to 7 are focused on solving design of experiments using one-way and two-way independent ANOVA, repeated ANOVA, and ANCOVA designs. Chapter 8 deals with various nonparametric tests, and the final chapters emphasize the application of multivariate techniques in sports research.
