Obwohl statistische Analysen aufgrund der technischen Moglichkeiten immer einfacher werden, ist das grundlegende Verstandnis und die Kenntnis von den Moglichkeiten und Grenzen statistischer Verfahren umso wichtiger. Mit vielen ausfuhrlichen Beispielen aus dem wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Bereich zeigt dieses Buch die Vielfalt der Anwendungsmoglichkeiten auf. Durch die Behandlung sowohl der beschreibenden als auch der induktiven Statistik lasst sich das Lehrbuch in Modulen zur Statistik und zur empirischen beziehungsweise quantitativen Forschungsmethodik einsetzen."
