<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This dictionary gives nontechnical definitions of statistical and methodological terms used in the social and behavioral sciences. Special attention is paid to terms that most often prevent educated general readers from understanding journal articles and books in sociology, psychology, and political science and in applied fields that build on those disciplines, such as education, policy studies, and administrative science. It does not, for the most part, directly explain how to do research or how to compute the statistics briefly described</abstract>
