With a robust statistical package and eyecatching graphics Stata is fast becoming the statistical program of choice for political scientists. For speed, versatility, comprehensiveness, and easeofuse, Stata is hard to beat. It can be a little daunting for beginning students, but no longer. Philip Pollocks accessible introduction to the program offers students a stepbystep tutorial, leading them through descriptive statistics, crosstabulation analysis, mean comparisons, linear correlation and regression (including dummy variables and interaction effects), and logistic regressionall tailored to political science material. With over 40 carefully crafted exercises and generous use of annotated screenshots, students will be navigating Statas graphics routines in no time. Ten feature boxes highlight some of Statas special capabilities while a concluding chapter provides guidance on how to set up a research project, as well as how to use Stata to read raw data.Students will be amazed at what they can do as they work through chapters. Graphics capabilities that allow a user to create effective visual displays ranging from elementary but elegant histograms to sophisticated comparisons of logistic regression curves are a major attraction of Stata and are put to effective use in this oneofakind workbook.Paired with a traditional methods text, this companion volume equips students to analyze real political science research and comes complete with a CDROM that includes four customized datasets: two individuallevel survey datasets (200 variables from the 2004 National Election Study and 150 variables from the 2002 General Social Survey), and two datasets containing aggregatelevel variables on the fifty states and on 114 nations of the world.
