Abstract
|
:
|
"Research Design in Social Research is a one-stop critical guide that demonstrates the importance of attending to design issues in social research." "Whereas other books in this field prioritize data collection strategy and statistical analysis, de Vaus argues that, as significant as these issues are, most pertinent of all to research techniques is the structure and design of the research." "This book will be invaluable to both students and researchers, informing and guiding them towards successful social research."--Jacket.
