Mertens. This introductory research methods text incorporates the viewpoints of various research paradigms into its descriptions of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods as well as program evaluation.

Additionally, each chapter includes a published sample study and abstract to illustrate the concepts discussed in that chapter.
