Although the so-called 'cognitive move' in psychology and the development of constructivist approaches of all kinds have changed psychology considerably over the last decades, Personal Construct Psychology (PCP) and the repertory grid technique have preserved the quality of a challenge.The grid method today is used in many different fields. While applications in the original field of counselling are still important, there are a wide range of other applications in medical diagnosis, personnel placement and development, market research, town planning, development of knowledge bases and expert systems, etc. However, although the grid method has been accepted and found useful both in PCP and beyond, it still remains a method for 'insiders' because in the past it has been difficult to obtain a thorough introduction and supervised training.This book is intended to fill the gap. It begins with a short introduction to the theoretical background and moves on to discuss typical steps of the grid method before it describes selected variants. While the existing literature is mainly concerned with the analysis of grid data, the present book stresses the processes leading up to the collection of data. The initial focus is on how meaningful data can be produced. In the description and discussion of the process of data collection, special attention is given to the typical problems beginners experience experimenting with the grid interview.

He has written this guide for psychology students and researchers; education students; personnel practitioners; as well as managers in the workplace. "This book's title may seem a contradiction in terms to readers who have seen the repertory grid as dauntingly complex. However, the book lives up to its title in being a very user-friendly introduction to the technique, written in a chatty style, and including numerous practical exercises, mostly not requiring use of computer software." - David Winter University of Hertfordshire and Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust

The spread of sophisticated computer packages and the machinery on which to run them has meant that procedures which were previously only available to experienced researchers with access to expensive machines and research students can now be carried out in a few seconds by almost every undergraduate. Understanding and Using Advanced Statistics provides the basis for gaining an understanding of what these analytic procedures do, when they should be used, and what the results provided signify. This comprehensive textbook guides students and researchers through the transition from simple statistics to more complex procedures with accessible language and illustration.

Experienced market researchers will find the tools to help them critically evaluate their own work. Those new to market research will be provided with a complete map of qualitative market research theory and practice (including brands and advertising theory) and the stimulation to discuss and learn more with tutors and practitioners.
