Sommario/riassunto

Few behavioral or health science studies proceed seamlessly. This refreshingly candid guide presents firsthand vignettes of obstacles on the bumpy road of research and offers feasible, easy-to-implement solutions. Contributors from a range of disciplines describe real-world problems at each stage of a quantitative or qualitative research project?from gaining review board approval to collecting and analyzing data?and discuss how these problems were resolved. A detailed summary chart helps readers quickly find material on specific issues, methods, and settings. Writ
