Thank you for purchasing my book, Introduction to Statistics: An Intuitive Guide for Analyzing Data and Unlocking Discoveries.
Throughout the examples in this book, I reference datasets you can use to follow along and try it yourself. All datasets are in comma separated values (CSV) files, which facilitates easy importation into different programs. If you’re reading an ebook version, you can click the links throughout the ebook to download datasets for specific examples.
Alternatively, click the link below to download a ZIP file that contains all datasets for this book.
In the section about sampling distributions of the mean in Chapter 5, I use a resampling example to illustrate how larger samples produce more precise estimates of population parameters. To run this resampling simulation, I use the freeware program, Statistics101.
Use that program along with the script that I wrote to recreate distribution of sample means for the fictitious IQ study with sample sizes of 5, 20, and 60. The link below downloads the script to run with Statistics101.
Happy reading!
