An Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis Using Stata: From Research Design to Final Report®
by Lisa Daniels and Nicholas Minot provides a step-by-step introduction
to research design, data analysis, and professional writing. It begins
with primary data collection including questionnaire design, sampling

statistical tests are appropriate and how to conduct these tests with
Stata. Finally, readers learn how to describe the results of statistical
tests for both non-technical and scholarly audiences. The book is
divided into five parts: 1) The research process and data collection; 2)
Describing data; 3) Testing hypotheses; 4) Exploring relationships; and
5) Writing a research paper.
