Understanding Quantitative and Qualitative Research in Psychology Reviews

Feels like having a friend at your side guiding you through the process! * Dr Maxine Woolhouse, Leeds Beckett University *
Brilliant when it comes to using everyday language to explain complicated topics in such a simple way...The authors are masters of this subject, but they are relating to the students and explaining things on a level which students can easily follow and understand. * Kerem Soylemez, Regent's University London *
The authors understand what it's like to be new to learning about research methods and statistics in Psychology. They never talk down to the reader and their enthusiasm is evident. * Dr Sandra O'Brien, University of Limerick *
Easy to read, engaging with lots of diagrams and screenshots... A useful book that covers everything we want our students to learn. * Dr Saima Noreen, De Montfort University *
I can't think of a book that covers both quantitative and qualitative techniques and research methods to the same level as this book does. * Dr Fraser Milton, University of Exeter *
