Understanding Research Methods

Was required to have this book for a doctoral quantitative research course and expected it to be dry and lengthy, but I was pleasantly surprised! The author has broken up otherwise large, complex concepts into 2-3 page manageable sections where they write in a way that is easy to understand.

I took a chance on buying this used textbook, which was listed as in "very good" condition. It arrived and I was overjoyed to see that it was in perfect condition. It has never been opened. So nice to save some money and get a brand new textbook.

Far cheaper than through school bookstore, it was the right version. I could tell it was a new book but the bottom edge was slightly damaged not to the point of paper damage but it look like something really heavy sat on it and bent the pages a bit for whole book thickness. Totally not an issue just a mention for those who can't stand a slight line on edge. Giving five stars because no other issues with book and the price was great.

This book is excellent! Great content and has helped me through my Research Methods class. The only draw back is it was very expensive.

I purchased this book for a research methods course. I found it was getting helpful after experiencing more research projects. I also like the content is highlighted (bold or italics) for some keywords.

Short and concise chapters on a variety of topics related to research. Great for review but probably not for initial learning. I use this in my graduate research methods class since all students should've learned this stuff already.

Book was as described and arrived very quickly. No issues.

The book is in a good condition: the spine is good, there’s no marks in it, and the pages are in good condition. The only problem I have is the book smelled really bad. I couldn’t study till I put baking soda in it then shook it off and put on a fan to air it out. It smelled like mold. I’d put it outside for a while but it’s winter
