Summary
For courses in Mathematical
Statistics.
Renowned for its
high-quality, real-world case studies and examples, this highly structured text is
designed to allow students with an established mathematics background to pursue a more
rigorous, advanced treatment of probability and statistics. It shows HOW to use
statistical methods, WHEN to use them, and reinforces the calculus that students have
covered in previous courses.
Features
- NEW-A
chapter on experimental design (Ch. 8)-Placed between coverage of the Normal
Distribution and Two-Sample Problems. Delineates how one experimental design differs from
another and the statistical consequences of those differences.
- Brings
cohesion to the study of the statistical techniques contained in the latter part of the
book by classifying data configurations.
- NEW-Minitab
sections-At the end of chapters.
- Serves
as a resource for those instructors who want to assign additional simulations or other
computer work to students. The Minitab material provides assistance in those sections
where computations are excessive (e.g., regression and the analysis of variance).
- NEW-Case
studies and examples have been updated and revised.
- NEW-Exercise
sets considerably expanded-Nearly 50% more in some chapters.
- NEW-Cover
pages include a chart of densities, moments, and moment generating functions.
- NEW-Additional
simulations and Monte Carlo studies.
- Enrich
student understanding of key statistical phenomena.
- NEW-Rearrangement
of the material on special distributions, estimation, and hypothesis testing (Chs. 4, 5,
and 6)-Ch. 4 now addresses more fully why certain measurements are described by
particular density functions, gives more attention to relationships between pdfs (e.g.,
the Poisson and the exponential), and better separates discrete and continuous variables.
Defines the exponential density explicitly (and standardizes its form throughout the
text). Section 5.8 on methods of estimating parameters has been moved to the beginning of
the chapter to help users who do not intend to do much with the theory of point
estimation. Simulations help to motivate the mathematical principles of estimation. Ch. 6
has been completely redone with hypothesis testing introduced in the context of the normal
H0: ...m = ...m rather than H0: p = p0. The discreteness of the binomial interferes with
the students' ability to understand the decision making process.
- Gives
instructors options to move through the text more quickly.
- NEW-A
complete Solutions Manual in response to user demand.
- Saves
time for instructors by providing step-by-step solutions.
- Superior
treatment of real-world data-Uses case studies and practical worked-out examples to
motivate statistical reasoning and demonstrate the application of statistical methods to a
wide variety of real-world situations.
- Sound,
systematic coverage of the theoretical aspects of mathematical statistics-Introduces
critically important concepts at different "levels" throughout the text-beginning
with an informal introduction and progressing to more detailed discussions as the concept
arises in later chapters.
- Provides
prerequisite mathematical material in an accessible way-Reviews calculus as necessary
throughout the presentation.
