Understanding Research Methods: An Overview of the Essentials, 11th Edition by Michelle Newhart and Mildred L. Patten provides students and researchers with a clear and accessible introduction to the essential concepts and principles of research methodology.
This updated 11th edition provides an overview of important concepts traditionally covered in research methods courses. It covers both qualitative and quantitative research, making it suitable for students with different levels of mathematical and research experience. Routledge describes the book as presenting concepts in an accessible format and explaining how to interpret statistics without requiring extensive computation.
The book is organized so that individual concepts can be studied independently, making it suitable for classroom learning, research assignments and independent study.
It is particularly useful for students learning how to develop research questions, review academic literature, understand research designs, evaluate research quality and interpret research findings.
