Organized to mirror each stage of the research process, this text guides readers through the process, from formulating questions, to collecting data, to interpreting results. Engaging and accessible, the book includes essential topics like measurement issues, correlational research, evaluation research, and integrative literature reviews, often overlooked in other textbooks.
Key features include:
- Balanced coverage of both qualitative and quantitative research methods
- Structured chapter features, including an outline, key terms, a summary, suggested readings, and reflective questions to facilitate discussion and application of theory
- Extensively updated chapters reflecting recent advancements, with new discussions on the implications of open science and the challenges of effective online data collection
- Expanded resources for instructors and students to support teaching and learning
Streamlined for an optimal balance of breadth and depth, Principles of Research in Behavioral Science is an indispensable resource for any researcher’s bookshelf. Ideal for advanced undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students seeking a strong foundation in research methods, it also serves as a valuable reference for seasoned researchers looking to refresh their knowledge.
