Using R With Multivariate Statistics cover

Using R with Multivariate Statistics is a quick guide to using R, free-access software available for Windows and Mac operating systems that allows users to customize statistical analysis. Designed to serve as a companion to a more comprehensive text on multivariate statistics, this book helps students and researchers in the social and behavioral sciences get up to speed with using R. It provides data analysis examples, R code, computer output, and explanation of results for every multivariate statistical application included. In addition, R code for some of the data set examples used in more comprehensive texts is included, so students can run examples in R and compare results to those obtained using SAS, SPSS, or STATA. A unique feature of the book is the photographs and biographies of famous persons in the field of multivariate statistics.

"This book is not only an excellent introductory resource of multivariate statistics using R, but also provides a complete coverage of multivariate statistics. I really love this book and look forward to using it for my stats courses."

-- Jianmin Guan, University of Texas at San Antonio

"The use of the programming language R in a meaningful way is a great strength of this book, as is the associated emphasis on matrix algebra. Also, the addition of brief biographies of key statisticians makes this book more interesting. Finally, the range and scope of techniques that are presented is impressive."

-- David E. Drew, Claremont Graduate University

"The text is down-to-earth and practical, with a straightforward approach to communicating a set of procedures for analyzing data."

-- Darrell Rudmann, Shawnee State University
"[…]I found the directions very clear and was able to run the syntax and get the output very easily." -- Camille L. Bryant, Columbus State Univer
