Riassunto

Questionnaires in Second Language Research: Construction, Administration, and Processing is the first guide in the second language field devoted to the question of how to produce and use questionnaires as reliable and valid research instruments. It offers a thorough overview of the theory of questionnaire design, administration, and processing, made accessible by concrete, real-life second language research applications. This Second Edition features a new chapter on how an actual scientific instrument was developed using the theoretical guidelines in the book, and new sections on translating questionnaires and collecting survey data on the Internet. Researchers and students in second language studies, applied linguistics, and TESOL programs will find this book invaluable, and it can also be used as a textbook for courses in quantitative research methodology and survey research in linguistics, psychology, and education departments.

Recensione:

"An expert in questionnaire-based research, Dornyei has produced an informative, fully updated, very accessible, and highly practical treatment of questionnaires in second language research. Through its balanced presentation of theoretical principles and sage advice as well as concrete examples of questionnaire design, administration, and analysis, the book offers applied linguists a wonderful resource with wide applicability."

-Patricia A. Duff, University of British Columbia, Canada

"This is an outstanding ‘how to’ resource book for L2 researchers and their students. It will be useful to all who use questionnaires, whether regularly or only on occasion. It is written in an exceptionally clear and accessible style. This Second Edition contains welcome new material―a step-by-step examination of a case study, detailed discussion of how to handle translation, and information on internet-based questionnaires. Altogether, very highly recommended!"

-Norman Segalowitz, Concordia University, Canada
