From the rear cover

Colin Dyer's Research in Psychology provides a concise and accessible introduction to research methods and statistics in the field. A follow up to the popular text, Beginning Research in Psychology, this book presents a clear focus on the practicalities of how to conduct research, and provides thorough coverage of key areas and topics.

Structured around two main themes, Methods and Data Analysis, the book begins with an introductory chapter on epistemological essentials of psychology and science before breaking the first section down into four comprehensive chapters on the subject of methods: interviews, surveys, observation, and experiments. The second part, focusing on data analysis, explores statistics and includes an innovative chapter on qualitative data. Each brand-new chapter begins with a chapter map, a chapter overview, and a list of key concepts, and concludes with helpful chapter summaries, extension activities, and references for suggested further reading. Integrated topic boxes throughout the text highlight definitions of technical terms to further comprehension.

Using qualitative and quantitative approaches, this text is an invaluable resource to those looking to improve their understanding of research methods and statistics.
