About this title

Synopsis

A textbook for the research methods course that integrates the various topics covered by using the concept of variability as a unifying theme. Among the changes in this revised edition are the addition of a second chapter that focuses on measurement and a new chapter on advanced correlational research strategies. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

From the Back Cover

Research Methodology is not an inherently interesting topic. This book counteracts the natural tendency to shy away from research with an understandable, palatable, useful, and interesting, and above all, readable attempt to explain research methods.

Knowing proper research methodology comes from an understanding of basic statistical principles, research design, measurement, descriptive studies, and scientific writing. This book addresses each subject section by section to enhance conceptual learning rather than regurgitation of calculations.

For anyone who needs to learn proper research methodology in psychology, social work, teaching, or public relations.
