Abstract: 

This study attempted to provide evidence about two questions (1) Can criteria be developed for evaluating introductory statistics texts which are based on the statistical education and text evaluation literature? (2) Using the criteria from (1), how do several introductory statistics texts used in schools and colleges of education compare to one another?
