With this book as a foundation, analysts now have every reason to incorporate the boundedness of variables in their analyses. Its timing is propitious. Software resources for analyzing bounded variables, especially doubly-bounded variables, are increasingly available in a variety of packages, including R, SAS, and Stata. This volume provides the guidance needed to design these analyses and interpret the results.
