Product Description
Review
Introduction to Research Methods and Statistics in Psychology is the third volume in a trilogy. It covers quantitative and qualitative approaches, includes detailed treatment of professional issues such as ethics, and gives insights into detailed aspects of professional research awareness rarely discussed with students.
This is a detailed, practical and modern book that is excellent value for money. In its own right, it is a book many should seriously consider as a core text, but it is even more impressive when seen as the final volume of a trilogy.

This book may be useful to a first year University student, but not beyond. I bought this book as a second year and found it very basic and didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know. The one useful thing it contained was advice on writing up a research report, going through the different sections and telling you what to include and what not to. However, this was also very limited and didn't give any examples of real papers or a 'perfect' paper which you can learn from. (As books such as Coolican's 'Research methods and statistics in Psychology' does.)
Overall, I would say only buy this book if you don't already know anything about research methods and you want a basic guide. There are much better ones on the market.
