Description
Summary:Kousser provides a comprehensive review of ecological regression, starting at an elementary level, sorting through the major arguments and evidence, and explaining the nature of the most complicated as well as the simplest methods. Taking an intuitive, rather than a statistically rigorous approach, the article is aimed at historians and political scientists, particularly graduate students, who already have some statistical knowledge. Lawyers and expert witnesses in voting-rights cases may also find the article useful.
