Criminological Research for Beginners is a comprehensive and
engaging guide to research methods in Criminology. Written
specifically for undergraduate students and novice researchers,
this book has been designed as a practical guide to planning,
conducting, and reporting research in the subject. By first
inviting readers to consider the importance of criminological
research, the book places related methodology firmly in the context
of students' broader study of Criminology, before moving on to
provide a detailed guide to the practical processes of research. It
is common for Criminology undergraduates to feel intimidated at the
prospect of conducting their own research, and these students
typically struggle to see the relevance of research methods to
their own studies. This book speaks directly to the needs of such
students, and includes contemporary examples and case studies that
bring a topic that is often thought of as dry to life, providing a
thorough and accessible practical guide that students can return to
at each stage of their research, all the way through to their
dissertation. This book covers: an examination of the theoretical,
political, and ethical debates in criminological research; a
complete guide to planning criminological research, assisting
student researchers in identifying their research questions,
choosing their research methods, and critiquing the available
literature; guidance on the practicalities and processes of
collecting data, a discussion of the process of analysing data and
writing up research, Including an extensive glossary and an
integrated companion website with extra examples, exercises, and
videos to further develop students' understanding, this book is
essential reading for any undergraduate on a Criminological
Research Methods course, or for anyone in need of practical
guidance on any or every of the various stages involved in
conducting thorough and effective criminological research.
