Focusing on methods rather than theories or empirical results, Decision Research provides a concise framework for the study of decision behavior. It offers a practical introduction to researchers who wish to critically examine popular and scientific writing, frame real-world problems in terms of decision making, or generate original research. Topics addressed include informal observation and case studies, formal statistical models, process tracing techniques, experimentation, and methods for studying individuals, groups, and organizations. Psychologists, evaluators, managers, educators, sociologists and others conducting decision research will find this volume a must read!
