Stats: Data and Models, Global Edition (5th Ed.)
Auteurs : De Veaux Richard, Velleman Paul, Bock David
For courses in Introductory Statistics.
Encourages statistical thinking using technology, innovative methods, and a sense of humour
Inspired by the 2016 GAISE Report revision, Stats: Data and Models, 5th Edition by De Veaux, Velleman, and Bock uses innovative strategies to help students think critically about data, while maintaining the book's core concepts, coverage, and most importantly, readability.
The authors make it easier for instructors to teach and for students to understand more complicated statistical concepts later in the course (such as the Central Limit Theorem). In addition, students get more exposure to large data sets and multivariate thinking, which better prepares them to be critical consumers of statistics in the 21st century.
The 5th Edition?s approach to teaching Stats: Data and Models is revolutionary, yet it retains the book's lively tone and hallmark pedagogical features such as its Think/Show/Tell Step-by-Step Examples.

Reflects the new Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) 2016 report adopted by the American Statistical Association to encourage statistical thinking
- New - Random Matters: This new feature encourages a gradual, cumulative understanding of randomization. The first Random Matters box introduces drawing inferences from data. Subsequent Random Matters features draw histograms of sample means, introduce the thinking involved in permutation tests, and encourage judgment about how likely the observed statistic seems when viewed against the simulated sampling distribution of the null hypothesis.
- New - Streamlined coverage of descriptive statistics helps students progress more quickly through the first part of the book. Also a GAISE recommendation, random variables and probability distributions are now covered later in the text to allow for more time on the more critical statistical concepts.
- New - A third variable is introduced with contingency tables and mosaic plots in Chapter 3 to give students earlier experience with multivariable thinking. Then, following the discussion of correlation and regression as a tool (without inference) in Chapters 6, 7, and 8, multiple regression is introduced in Chapter 9.
- Where Are We Going? chapter openers give a context for the work students are about to begin within the broader course.
- Margin and in-text boxed notes throughout each chapter enhance and enrich the text.
- Reality Checks ask students to think about whether their answers make sense before interpreting their results.
- Notation Alerts appear whenever special notation is introduced.
- The Tech Support section provides instructions for applying the topics covered by the chapter within each of the supported statistics packages.
