[quote=Anonymous]I learned how to read those tables in graduate school, in regression, causal inference (that's cause-al, not casual!) and econometrics. Those courses came AFTER I had already taken 1) undergrad stats, 2) grad stats, 3) economic modeling with calc. So that's a lot to study on your own. And I won't lie, it's difficult stuff to grasp. Rather than go to a textbook (they will have more theory and detail than you need) I recommend you start with a study guide like "Statistics for Dummies" or "Head First Statistics" and the like. That will get you the foundation you need to move on to multivariate regression and modeling. (Those subjects will not be covered in the books named above, but you can't jump straight to them without understanding the basics, trust me.) regression and modeling also involve calculus, but if you took algebra and pre-calc in you can probably pick up what you need.
