Includes bibliographical references and indexes.

Contents -- Preface -- 1. Introduction: Consequences of Numerical Inaccuracy -- 2. Sources of Inaccuracy in Statistical Computation -- 3. Evaluating Statistical Software -- 4. Robust Inference -- 5. Numerical Issues in Markov Chain Monte Carlo Estimation -- 6. Numerical Issues Involved in Inverting Hessian Matrices -- 7. Numerical Behavior of King's EI Method -- 8. Some Details of Nonlinear Estimation -- 9. Spatial Regression Models -- 10. Convergence Problems in Logistic Regression -- 11. Recommendations for Replication and Accurate Analysis -- Bibliography.

At last--a social scientist's guide through the pitfalls of modern statistical computing. Addressing the current deficiency in the literature on statistical methods as they apply to the social and behavioral sciences, Numerical Issues in Statistical Computing for the Social Scientist seeks to provide readers with a unique practical guidebook to the numerical methods underlying computerized statistical calculations specific to these fields. The authors demonstrate that knowledge of these numerical methods and how they are used in statistical packages is essential for making accurate inferences.
