Theory-based data analysis for the social sciences
This book presents the elaboration model for the multivariate analysis of observational quantitative data using two complimentary strategies: an exclusionary strategy annd an inclusive strategy. The primary emphasis is on the translation of theory into a logical analytic strategy and the interpretation of results. Using real data, not contrived examples, the text provides a step-by-step guide through the process of integrating theory with data analysis in order to arrive at meaningful answers to research questions.
