Elementary Statistics: United States Edition
Autor Mario F. Triolaen Limba Engleză Mixed media product – 27 dec 2008
The Eleventh Edition contains more than 2000 exercises, 87% of which are new, and 82% of which use real data. It also contains hundreds of examples, 86% of which are new and 94% of which use real data. By analyzing real data, students are able to connect abstract concepts to the world at large. As a result, they gain conceptual understanding and learn to think statistically, using the same methods that professional statisticians employ.
Now instructors can encourage students to practice without needing to grade work by hand: MyStatLab is an online assessment and tutorial system available with this text. Visit our website for more information.
Data sets and other resources for this book are available at our website.

Notă biografică
Mario F. Triola is a Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at Dutchess Community College, where he has taught statistics for over 30 years. Marty is the author of Essentials of Statistics, Elementary Statistics Using Excel, Elementary Statistics Using the Graphing Calculator, and he is a co-author of Biostatistics for the Biological and Health Sciences, Statistical Reasoning for Everyday Life and Business Statistics. He has written several manuals and workbooks for technology supporting statistics education. Outside of the classroom, Marty has been a speaker at many conferences and colleges. His consulting work includes the design of casino slot machines and fishing rods, and he has worked with attorneys in determining probabilities in paternity lawsuits, identifying salary inequities based on gender, analyzing disputed election results, analyzing medical data, and analyzing medical school surveys. Marty has testified as an expert witness in New York State Supreme Court. The Text and Academic Authors Association has awarded Mario F. Triola a "Texty" for Excellence for his work on Elementary Statistics.
Caracteristici
- Real data are infused throughout the entire text. Triola is known for keeping his text very up-to-date and for including real data wherever possible so that students recognize the statistics in their everyday lives.
- Of the 257 examples in the text, 94% use real data and 86% are new to this edition.
- Of the 2011 exercises, 82% of the exercises draw from real data and 87% are new.
- Data sets help students gain statistical literacy and teach them to apply the same methodology and thought processes used by professional statisticians. Data sets are included in the textbook (Appendix B), and in multiple electronic formats in MyStatLab®, on the included CD-ROM, and at our website.
- The flexible organization allows instructors to cover the basics of correlation and regression early in the course if they wish, and scale coverage of probability as needed to address their unique course needs.
- Extensive practice opportunities and review tools appear at the end of every chapter, and include the following items.
- Chapter Reviews summarize the key concepts and topics.
- Review Exercises, Statistical Literacy, andCritical Thinking exercises give students varied practice on chapter concepts and procedures.
- Cumulative Review Exercises help students synthesize the material from previous chapters.
- From Data to Decision capstone problems require students to interpret and analyze data to make an informed decision.
- Quick Quizzes at the end of the chapter gives students a quick review of the important concepts in the chapter.
- Technology, Applet, and Internet Projects provide further opportunities for hands-on practice and collaborative group work.
- An increased emphasis on interpreting results, rather than simply obtaining answers, helps students develop statistical literacy and, where appropriate, arrive at practical conclusions. Worked examples in the text model this approach.
- Chapter-opening problems use real data to engage students, while chapter overviews clearly state each chapter's objectives.
- Flowcharts throughout the text simplify and clarify complex concepts and procedures.
- Using Technology subsections include instructions for STATDISK®, Minitab®, Excel®, or a TI-83/84 Plus® calculator. Book-specific technology manuals are also available as valuepack options and include tutorial instructions, worked-out examples, and more.
- MyStatLab is available for Triola’s text for those who use online homework, quizzes and tests in their course. This is a way to encourage students to practice without needing to grade work by hand. Visit our website for more information.

- The included CD-ROM contains Triola’s own statistical software, STATDISK® (Version 11), as well as data sets from Appendix B; a section on Bayes’ Theorem; a glossary; programs for the TI-83/84 Plus graphing calculator; and the Excel® add-in DDXL, which is designed to enhance Excel’s statistics capabilities.
- STATDISK Statistical Software is included with every new text. Version 11 includes Normality Assessment (on-screen display with histogram, boxplot, normal-quantile plot, number of outliers, and Ryan-Joiner test) and modified boxplot allowing more than 9 columns of data.
- A detachable formula and table card insert, organized by chapter and featuring the most commonly used tables, gives students a quick reference for studying.
