"This book has helped more psychology students appreciate and understand research methodology than any other text of its kind. The authors' has been so successful because they: use a clear, straightforward approach to guide their readers through the process of thinking about and conducting psychological research. Introduce research methods in which the research is done by incorporating many examples of "real" research methods and findings. Emphasize a multimethod approach to hypothesis testing, which is necessary to meet the goals of scientific psychology." --Provided by the publisher
