What reviewers are saying about Research Methods for Social Work:
“It covers the basics of social sciences and behavioral research methods very well, while incorporating examples of social work research. In addition, the author introduces research methods (e.g., participant action research) that have particular relevance to social work practice that are often ignored in other texts.”
John D. Clapp, San Diego State University
“This book succeeds in 'demystifying' what is meant by analysis of data.”
Beverly A. Stadum, Saint Cloud State University
