This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and applications of statistics in understanding social phenomena.Chapter 1 begins by establishing how statistical thinking supports social research and evidence-based decision-making.Chapter 2 delves into descriptive statistics, explaining how data are organized, summarized, and visualized through measures of central tendency, dispersion, and graphical tools.Chapter 3 introduces inferential statistics, guiding readers through probability, sampling, and hypothesis testing to make generalizations about populations from sample data.Chapter 4 focuses on relationships among variables, teaching techniques such as correlation, regression, and chi-square tests to uncover connections between social factors. Chapter 5 explores group differences, introducing t-tests, ANOVA, MANOVA, and ANCOVA to assess variations among social groups.Finally, Chapter 6 provides self-test questions designed to evaluate the reader's understanding. Ultimately, the text positions statistics not merely as a technical discipline but as a lens for exploring, understanding, and explaining the complexities of human society through empirical evidence.
