An R Companion for Applied Statistics II
Multivariable and Multivariate Techniques



July 2020 | 288 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
An R Companion for Applied Statistics II: Multivariable and Multivariate Techniques breaks the language of the R software down into manageable chunks in order to help students learn how to use R to analyze multivariate data. The book focuses on the statistics generally covered in an intermediate or multivariate statistics course and provides one or two ways to run each analysis in R. The book has been designed to be an R companion to Rebecca M. Warner's Applied Statistics II: Third Edition, and includes end-of-chapter instructions for replicating the examples from that book in R. However, this text can also be used as a stand-alone R guide for a multivariate statistics course, without reference to the Warner text. Datasets and scripts to run the examples are provided on an accompanying website.

Danney Rasco is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology, Sociology, and Social Work at West Texas A&M University. As a self-professed stats nerd, he enjoys (yes, enjoys) teaching three or four sections of statistics each year and simply smiles and shrugs when students shake their heads at his enthusiasm and zeal for data and the beautiful sport of number crunching. In his “free” time, he plans statistics workshops because he is a glutton for punishment. This love for statistics and teaching (i.e., nerdiness) resulted in a Summer Teaching Assistant Fellowship from the University of New Hampshire, an Intellectual... More About Author
