One of the dilemmas facing those who teach sociological methods and statistics these days is how to present the three main applied analytical models which derive from the general linear hypothesis-analysis of variance, regression, and analysis of covariance. The reason for this dilemma is that whereas there now exist in the sociological literature a number of theoretical expositions integrating these various models, nowhere has there existed a reference or, for that matter, a set of references which provided the computational integration in sufficient clarity that the teacher could assign them to his class and be assured that the student would obtain a clear picture of how the three models were computationally interrelated and interchangeable. Kerlinger and Pedhazur have painstakingly provided such a resource. For those looking for such a text (or reference book), it is a teacher's delight! The authors provide one with a consistency of framework which opens in Part 1 (five chapters). Those chapters are a review of the foundations of multiple regression and can be easily read by students who have had an introductory course in statistics. The review is, however, more than just a rehash of regression theory and procedures, as the authors are also developing a framework for the later integration of analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, time series analysis, path analysis and multivariate analysis (multivariate analysis of variance, canonical regression, and discriminant a...
