Each chapter covers a research problem, taking the student through identifying research questions and hypotheses; identifying, classifying, and operationally defining the study variables; choosing appropriate research designs; conducting power analysis; choosing an appropriate statistic for the problem; using a data set; conducting data screening and analyses (SPSS); interpreting the statistics; and writing the results related to the problem. Designed so students will know how to plan research and conduct statistical analyses using several different procedures"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aResearch methods for the social sciences ;$v42. 606 $aPsychology$xMethodology 606 $aSocial sciences$xMethodology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPsychology$xMethodology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xMethodology. 676 $a150.72/7 700 $aMartin$b William E$g(William Eugene),$f1948-$0956087 701 $aBridgmon$b Krista D.$f1979-$0956088 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452609403321 996 $aQuantitative and statistical research methods$92164284 997 $aUNINA
