Research Basics: Design to Data Analysis in Six Steps offers a fresh and creative approach to the research process based on author James V. Spickard’s decades of teaching experience. Using an intuitive six-step model, readers learn how to craft a research question and then identify a logical process for answering it. Conversational writing and multi-disciplinary examples illuminate the model’s simplicity and power, effectively connecting the “hows” and “whys” behind social science research. Students using this book will learn how to turn their research questions into results.

Genre: Business & Economics
ISBN:

Designed for upper-level undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in research design and analysis in departments of psychology, education, sociology, anthropology, and other social and behavioral sciences. A comprehensive review of analyses of basic and complex ANOVA models through traditional approaches and multiple regression, integrating the most recent releases of MINITAB, SAS, SPSS, and SYSTAT. In all chapters of this comprehensive text, both the basic model and its numerous complexities are presented along with discussions of effect size, relative efficiency and comparisons, illustrated by numerous examples. For each major model, the text provides tests for assumptions, a hand-worked example, and an example with real data including a write-up of the results using APA format. The text also provides data sets, syntax, and output for accomplishing numerous additional analyses through recent releases of MINITAB, SAS, SPSS and SYSTAT, often neglected in software manuals. *TECHNOLOGY ADVANTAGE: Inclusion of syntax and output from MINITAB, SAS, SPSS, and SYSTAT allows students to concentrate on the research question rather than on the specifics of the software program and provides

ISBN: 1317535650

Originally published in 1992, the editors of this volume fulfill three main goals: to take stock of progress in the development of data-analysis procedures for single-subject research; to clearly explain errors of application and consider them within the context of new theoretical and empirical information of the time; and to closely examine new developments in the analysis of data from single-subject or small n experiments. To meet these goals, this book provides examples of applicable single-subject research data analysis. It presents a wide variety of topics and perspectives and hopes that readers will select the data-analysis strategies that best reflect their methodological approaches, statistical sophistication, and philosophical beliefs. These strategies include visual analysis, nonparametric tests, time-series experiments, applications of statistical procedures for multiple behaviors, applications of meta-analysis in single-subject research, and discussions of issues related to the application and misapplication of selected techniques.

Release: 2020-04-22
Genre: Education
ISBN: 0429780060

This book presents an integrated approach to learning about research design alongside statistical analysis concepts. Strunk and Mwavita maintain a focus on applied educational research throughout the text, with practical tips and advice on how to do high-quality quantitative research. Design and Analysis in Educational Research teaches research design (including epistemology, research ethics, forming research questions, quantitative design, sampling methodologies, and design assumptions) and introductory statistical concepts (including descriptive statistics, probability theory, sampling distributions), basic statistical tests (like z and t), and ANOVA designs, including more advanced designs like the factorial ANOVA and mixed ANOVA, using SPSS for analysis. Designed specifically for an introductory graduate course in research design and statistical analysis, the book takes students through principles by presenting case studies, describing the research design principles at play in each study, and then asking students to walk through the process of analyzing data that reproduce the published results. An online eResource is also available with data sets. This textbook is tailor-made for first-level doctoral courses in research design and analysis, and will also be of interest to graduate students in education and educational research.

"In this Second Edition of Design of Experiments: Statistical Principles of Research Design and Analysis, Bob Kuehl continues to treat research design as a very practical subject. He emphasizes the importance of developing a treatment design based on research hypothesis as an initial step and then developing an experimental or observational study design that facilitates efficient data collection. With the book's wide array of examples from actual studies from many scientific and technological fields, Kuehl constantly reinforces the research design process."--Back cover.

ISBN: 1462540201

Featuring engaging examples from diverse disciplines, this book explains how to use modern approaches to quasi-experimentation to derive credible estimates of treatment effects under the demanding constraints of field settings. Foremost expert Charles S. Reichardt provides an in-depth examination of the design and statistical analysis of pretest-posttest, nonequivalent groups, regression discontinuity, and interrupted time-series designs. He details their relative strengths and weaknesses and offers practical advice about their use. Reichardt compares quasi-experiments to randomized experiments and discusses when and why the former might be a better choice. Modern moethods for elaborating a research design to remove bias from estimates of treatment effects are described, as are tactics for dealing with missing data and noncompliance with treatment assignment. Throughout, mathematical equations are translated into words to enhance accessibility.
