<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This book focuses on fundamental elements of time-series analysis that social scientists need to understand to employ time-series analysis for their research and practice. Avoiding extraordinary mathematical materials, this book explains univariate time-series analysis step-by-step, from the preliminary visual analysis through the modeling of seasonality, trends, and residuals to the prediction and the evaluation of estimated models. Then, this book explains smoothing, multiple time-series analysis, and interrupted time-series analysis. At the end of each step, this book coherently provides an analysis of the monthly violent-crime rates as an example."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Times Series Analysis in the Social Sciences</i> is a practical and highly readable introduction written exclusively for students and researchers whose mathematical background is limited to basic algebra.
