  Semiparametric Regression for the Social Sciences Amazon Examples From the Book Exercise Datasets Table of Contents

  
  
  Nonparametric smoothing techniques allow analysts to estimate nonlinear relationships between continuous variables. In conjunction with standard statistical models, such smoothing techniques provide analysts with the means to test for and estimate nonlinear relationships in a wide variety of analyses. These methods, however, see little use in the social sciences. The book first introduces readers to the principles of nonparametric smoothing and to a wide variety of smoothing methods. Next, I demonstrate how such smoothing methods can be incorporated into linear and generalized linear models. The book provides numerous examples using analyses of data from Congressional elections, the Supreme Court, racial rioting, militarized conflict, feminist attitudes, and the sociology of the family.
