Think About It Essays
Each chapter ends with a special Think About It essay. These essays are designed to introduce modeling procedures based on referenced journal articles. Each Think About It essay provides background information on an applied situation and then invites students to answer a series of "bite-sized" questions culminating in a question of some importance in the social, managerial, or biological sciences. In this way, students are introduced to ideas and methods that might otherwise be beyond the scope of the text. (Answers to these problems may be found in the Instructor's Manual.)
