Split into five sections that cover your whole research journey, this book captures everything you need to understand to do a sports research project.

From getting started with a research question and selecting a research approach to choosing a method of data collection and analysing and presenting research findings, it walks you step-by-step through the entire research process. The book also:

• Showcases a diverse range of approaches, including experiments, surveys, focus groups, interviews, systematic reviews and mixed methods, to help you choose the best option for your project.
• Focuses on applied research, showing you how to go beyond the classroom, conduct research in the field and manage and analyse data in the real world.
• Explores how your supervisor can support you to get the most out of your project.
