This textbook is a step-by-step guide for high school, community

college, and undergraduate students who are taking a course in applied

statistics and wish to learn how to use Excel to solve statistical

problems. All of the statistics problems in this book come from the

following fields of study: business, education, psychology, marketing,

engineering and advertising. Students will learn how to perform key

statistical tests in Excel without being overwhelmed by statistical

theory.

Each chapter briefly explains a topic and then demonstrates

how to use Excel commands and formulas to solve specific statistics

problems. The book offers guidance in using Excel in two different

ways: (1) writing formulas (e.g., confidence interval about the mean,

one-group t-test, two-group t-test, correlation) and (2) using Excel’s

drop-down formula menus (e.g., simple linear regression, multiple

correlations and multiple regression, and one-way ANOVA). Three

practice problems are provided at the end of each chapter, along with

their solutions in an appendix. An additional practice test allows

readers to test their understanding of each chapter by attempting to

solve a specific statistics problem using Excel; the solution to each of

these problems is also given in an appendix. This book is a tool that

can be used either by itself or along with any good statistics book.​
