OverviewExperimental Research and Design provides an authoritative guide to successfully completing a research project. It has a systematic structure, which leads from the initial stages of planning an experimental research project and deciding upon which sample and method to use, through to the practicalities of carrying out research, to the final analysis and write-up. Incorporating practical examples of how experiments are designed, with easy-to-understand case studies, Experimental Research and Design provides an extensive coverage of all the key issues, including: defining a research question designing an experiment to investigate a research question running an experiment and collecting data interpreting the results writing reports, from creating an abstract through to conclusions and references. The book is accompanied by software which has been specifically designed to assist students in preparing a first draft of their research reports. This software guides students through each section of the report separately, from the title, to the introduction, the method, the results, and the discussion sections, helping them to identify a clear, succinct, and appropriate structure for their report. It also gives guidance on how to explain the rationale for their experiment and formulate a precise hypothesis, and on how to discuss relevant theories to a research question, present data in tables or graphs and comment on findings. This book will be an invaluable tool for helping students to develop and present research reports in an appropriate manner.
