Riassunto:

Research Methods, Statistics, and Applications, by Kathrynn A. Adams and Eva K. Lawrence, is designed to introduce students to conducting and analyzing research.  This engaging book consistently integrates research methods and statistics, allowing students to learn concurrently about different research designs and the appropriate statistics to use when analyzing data. Numerous examples and practical applications help readers gain interest in the material while diminishing the anxiety students experience while taking this course. In every chapter, the authors develop and apply research topics and examples from the current research literature across all aspects of the research process. Using conversational language, the text prepares students for both graduate work and for critical analysis of research as professionals and informed citizens.
