Synopsis

The goal of this text is to introduce the basic concepts of social science research methods to advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in programs that study families and children. Methods of Family Research differs from other research methods texts in a significant way. While traditional texts focus on teaching students how to produce research, this text teaches how to consume research. It equips students to critically read, understand, and evaluate research without getting bogged down in technical details.
