A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

An introduction to the basic principles of psychological research (both experimental and non-experimental) with new coverage of qualitative research.

Known for its readability, Experimental Methodology is organized so that each chapter focuses on a specific step in the research process. The primary orientation of this text is toward providing instruction in the experimental approach, but an introduction to non-experimental approaches such as ex-post facto research, correlational research, and survey research is provided. Rather than dichotomizing psychological research into descriptive and experimental research, this edition takes the more current approach of using the quantitative and qualitative research dichotomy, presented in Chapter 2. Christensen also contains strong coverage of research ethics. Experimental Methodology can be accompanied by a lab manual.

Quatrième de couverture

Larry Christensen’s Experimental Methodology, Tenth Edition, is a reader-friendly introduction to the basic principles of experimental psychological research. The text provides instruction in experimental research as well as non-experimental approaches such as ex-post facto research, correlational research, and survey research.  Also included are qualitative research approaches such as ethnography and phenomenology.

 

Features that facilitate student learning include chapter-opening vignettes that show the relevance of psychological research, study questions within each chapter, and end-of-chapter challenge questions.  A short practice exam also is included at the end of each chapter to help students assess their comprehension.  A student website includes additional practice exam questions, as well as web links and other study tools.
