textbook

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

We will be using the assigned texbook for our week of fieldwork at Fossil Rim:  “Lehner, P.  1996.  Handbook of Ethological Methods.  2nd edition. Cambridge Univ. Press. ” I recommend getting a copy to bring with you to Fossil Rim.  We will have several copies to share, as an alternative option.  This book is a good reference because it provides examples of behavioral studies to illustrate the statistical procedures.

 If you do not anticipate needing to go into as much depth on the statistics, I recommend the book by Martin, P. and Bateson as a good alternative.  It is excellent and a quick read.
