Product Description
This comprehensive and accessible textbook offers a complete grounding in both qualitative and quantitative research methods for the sports studies student.

From the Back Cover
This comprehensive and accessible textbook offers a complete grounding in both qualitative and quantitative research methods for the sports studies student. The book offers the reader a step-by-step guide to the research process, from designing a research project, to collecting and analysing data, to reporting the research, all of which is richly illustrated with sport-related case-studies and examples. The book covers key topics such as:

- conceptual Models
- qualitative research methods
- choosing an appropriate research design
- undertaking a literature review
- the internet as a research tool
- writing a research report
- the key research methods such as questionnaires, interviews, content analysis and ethnographic studies.
- analysing data, including an introduction to SPSS, as well as guides to descriptive and inferential statistics

This is the first research methods text designed exclusively for students studying sport. It will therefore be essential reading for all undergraduates on sport courses undertaking a research project or dissertation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection in its finest form for sports studies students., 21 April 2006
By W. MAXWELL (Bedfordshire ,Uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I can speak from the view point of writing a sports studies dissertation and having the pleasure of meeting one of the authors (IAN) myself as he is a lecturer at my university. The book is perfect for anyone who wants a simple but through guide to writing a dissertation for sports studies. If I was to describe it in a few words:

Interesting
Thorough
Easy read
Covers all the main points

A must have for sports management/studies/leisure and tourism. Hope this helps !
