In 1958 a Canadian Political Science Association committee determined that one way to improve statistical research in the Social Sciences in Canada was by establishing an annual forum where papers could be presented and discussed. This second volume contains six of the ten papers given at Sir George Williams University, Montreal, in 1961.
The Canadian Political Science Association's 1964 Conference on Statistics was held in Charlottetown on June 13 and 14. The general theme of the Conference was Regional Statistical Studies. Twelve papers were presented and of these nine are included in this volume.
A collection of eight papers given at the first Conference of the Canadian Political Science Association at Queen's University are contained in this volume. Diverse alike in subject and statistical method, the papers as printed incorporate the discussion that attended their presentation in 1960.
