Writing the Research ReportReviewsWe have used this textbook for a number of years. It is clear, well-organized, and written at a level suited to doctoral students who do applied work using a variety of research methodologies. The latest edition improves upon an already good book by adding sections from research articles that exemplify points the authors are making, tables and diagrams for visual learners, and references to effect size and power that reinforce the need for consideration of the research design from multiple perspectives. Our students do a good job of writing a research proposal using the information from this book. -Kathy Green, University of Denver, USA This third edition is a comprehensive and well-written book for graduate students and researchers doing research in education and other applied areas. The book provides not only an in-depth discussion of research methods concepts, but also a lot of real life examples for illustration. It is an excellent reference source for anyone doing research. -Michael C. W. Yip, The Hong Kong Institute of Education, Hong Kong Author InformationJeffrey A.
