Two additional features carry this encyclopedia far above other works in the field: bibliographic entries devoted to significant articles in the history of research design and reviews of contemporary tools, such as software and statistical procedures, used to analyze results. It covers the spectrum of research design strategies, from material presented in introductory classes to topics necessary in graduate research; it addresses cross- and multidisciplinary research needs, with many examples drawn from the social and behavioral sciences, neurosciences, and biomedical and life sciences; it provides summaries of advantages and disadvantages of often-used strategies; and it uses hundreds of sample tables, figures, and equations based on real-life cases."--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Social sciences $x Statistical methods $v Encyclopedias. 650 0 $a Social sciences $x Methodology $x Methodology $v Encyclopedias. 700 1 $a Salkind, Neil J. $4 edt 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20110608044255.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B3808B1AF79811DFA66E0ED36AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
