The Sage sourcebook of advanced data analysis methods for communication research

This sourcebook provides an introductory treatment of various advanced statistical methods applied to research in the field of communication. Written by authors who use these methods in their own research, each chapter gives a nontechnical overview of what the method is and how it can be used to answer communication-related questions or aide the researcher in dealing with difficult dataproblems. Most chapters include an example based on real data to illustrate basic concepts. Students and faculty interested in diving into a new statistical topic, such as latent growth modeling, multilevel modeling, propensity scoring, or time series analysis, will find each chapter an excellent springboard for acquiring the background needed to jump into more advanced, technical readings.
