Trends in Alzheimer's Disease Research
Author: Eileen M. Welsh
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781594549380
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person's ability to carry out daily activities. The most common form of dementia among older people is Alzheimer's Disease (AD), which involves the parts of the brain that control memory, thought and language. Age is the most important known risk factor for AD. The number of people with the disease doubles every 5 years beyond age 65. AD is a slow disease, starting with mild memory loss and ending with severe brain damage. The course the disease takes and how fast changes occur vary from person to person. On average, AD patients live from 8 to 10 years after they are diagnosed, though the disease can last for as many as 20 years. Current research is aimed at understanding why AD occurs and who is at greatest risk for developing it, improving the accuracy of diagnosis and ability to identify who is at risk, developing, discovering and testing new treatments for behavioural problems in patients with AD. This book gathers state-of-the-art research from leading scientists throughout the world which offers important information on understanding the underlying causes and discovering the most effective treatments for Alzheimer's Disease.

Choosing and Using Statistics
Author: Calvin Dytham
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1444311271
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
The first edition of this excellent handbook was extremely wellreceived by both students and lecturers alike. It has helped tosimplify the often complex and difficult task of choosing and usingthe right statistics package. This is a book for any student or professional biologist whowants to process data using a statistical package on the computer,to select appropriate methods, and extract the importantinformation from the often confusing output that is produced. It isaimed primarily at undergraduates and masters students in thebiological sciences who have to apply statistics in practicalclasses and projects. Such users of statistics do not have tounderstand either how tests work or how to do the calculations, andthese aspects are not covered in the book. The new edition has been updated to cover the very latestversions of the computer packages described, expanded to includecoverage for logistic regression, a more detailed consideration ofmultivariate analysis, data exploration and further examples ofPrinciple Component Analysis and Discriminate Function Analysis aregiven. New edition will use SPSS 10.0, Minitab 13.1 and Excel2000. New simplified version of the Key and flow chart of decisionsto reach simple statistical tests. Section on multivariate techniques expanded to give furtherexamples of PCA and DFA. Aimed at students using statistics for projects and inpractical classes. Statistical jargon explained through an extensive glossary andkey to symbols. Stresses the importance of experimental design, measurement ofdata and interpretation of results rather than an understanding ofthe statistical tests themselves.

SPSS for Starters
Author: Ton J. Cleophas
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048195195
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
This small book addresses different kinds of datafiles, as commonly encountered in clinical research, and their data-analysis on SPSS Software. Some 15 years ago serious statistical analyses were conducted by specialist statisticians using ma- frame computers. Nowadays, there is ready access to statistical computing using personal computers or laptops, and this practice has changed boundaries between basic statistical methods that can be conveniently carried out on a pocket calculator and more advanced statistical methods that can only be executed on a computer. Clinical researchers currently perform basic statistics without professional help from a statistician, including t-tests and chi-square tests. With help of user-friendly software the step from such basic tests to more complex tests has become smaller, and more easy to take. It is our experience as masters’ and doctorate class teachers of the European College of Pharmaceutical Medicine (EC Socrates Project Lyon France) that s- dents are eager to master adequate command of statistical software for that purpose. However, doing so, albeit easy, still takes 20–50 steps from logging in to the final result, and all of these steps have to be learned in order for the procedures to be successful.

Multivariate Methods and Forecasting with IBM® SPSS® Statistics
Author: Abdulkader Aljandali
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319564811
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
This is the second of a two-part guide to quantitative analysis using the IBM SPSS Statistics software package; this volume focuses on multivariate statistical methods and advanced forecasting techniques. More often than not, regression models involve more than one independent variable. For example, forecasting methods are commonly applied to aggregates such as inflation rates, unemployment, exchange rates, etc., that have complex relationships with determining variables. This book introduces multivariate regression models and provides examples to help understand theory underpinning the model. The book presents the fundamentals of multivariate regression and then moves on to examine several related techniques that have application in business-orientated fields such as logistic and multinomial regression. Forecasting tools such as the Box-Jenkins approach to time series modeling are introduced, as well as exponential smoothing and naïve techniques. This part also covers hot topics such as Factor Analysis, Discriminant Analysis and Multidimensional Scaling (MDS).

Doing Statistics With SPSS
Author: Alistair W Kerr
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9780761973850
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
""""A well-written and -illustrated work, recommended for all college libraries. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty."" --CHOICE, December 2002 Doing Statistics With SPSS is derived from the authors' many years of experience teaching undergraduates data handling using SPSS. It assumes no prior understanding beyond that of basic mathematical operations and is therefore suitable for anyone undertaking an introductory statistics course as part of a science based undergraduate programme. The text will: enable the reader to make informed choices about what statistical tests to employ; what assumptions are made in using a particular test; demonstrate how to execute the analysis using SPSS; and guide the reader in his//her interpretation of its output. Each chapter ends with an exercise and provides detailed instructions on how to run the analysis using SPSS release 10. Learning is further guided by pointing the reader to particular aspects of the SPSS output and by having the readerengage with specified items of information from the SPSS results. This text is more complete than the alternatives that usually fall into one of two camps. They either provide an explanation of the concepts but no instructions on how to execute the analysis with SPSS, or they are a manual which instructs the reader on how to drive the software but with minimal explanation of what it all means. This book offers the best elements of both in a style that is economical and accessible.Doing Statistics with SPSS will be essential reading for undergraduates in psychology and health-related disciplines, and likely to be of invaluable use to many other students in the social sciences taking acourse in statistics.
