Statistical Resources on the Web

A Resource for Faculty and Students in the Social Sciences

This is a basic collection of Social Science Statistical Resources on the Internet. It is very likely that the links on these pages will be updated fairly regularly. We strongly suggest that if you find a link that you would very much like to return to, make a note of the location.

If you do not find what you are looking for in what may seem to be the first obvious category, please try the others as well. There is a great deal of overlap.

A reference list of lists
Some Statistical Programs on the web - including assistance with statistical procedures, and sites specifically for qualitative analysis
Some links to Specific Data Sets, with a subcategory of Population and Global Food Policies
Some links to data specifically relating to the USA
Some International and Intergovernmental links
Some links to other Social Science Departments and their data libraries
For the world-weary stats student we offer you the Internet Glossary of Statistical Terms. It doesn't get any better than this.
