This is a complete revision with new material of the second edition
of Social Sciences Research: Research, Writing, and Presentation
Strategies for Students (Scarecrow Press, 2008). There have been
significant changes in the research process in the social sciences
since the second edition of this text was published in 2008 - a
decade ago. The plethora of new information technologies (e.g.,
smart phones, tablets, apps, etc.); the information overload not
only on the Internet where anyone can publish, but also with the
explosion of social media (e.g., Twitter, Facebook, Instagram,
etc.); as well as the far reaching changes in databases and other
sources of electronic information that is available. Complementing
the manual are appendixes consisting of a list of possible research
questions, an example paper, a complete set of worksheets, and
blank citation forms to be used to record references, which provide
further practice for students. In this third edition, the author
has included more instruction on searches using electronic sources
as well as new formatting guidelines that have been promulgated in
the past several years. The ideal resource for college students,
this manual addresses the finer points of research and writing that
are not given enough instruction in the classroom.
