In simple and non-technical terms, the Second Edition of Data
Collection and Analysis illustrates a wide range of techniques and
approaches used in social research projects. Always accessible and
engaging, this comprehensive text covers both quantitative and
qualitative approaches to data collection and analysis in social
research, considering both the structure and logic of research
projects and the ethics and politics of research.
A wide range of examples illustrate the text and a set of
exercises runs throughout the book to aid the reader in
understanding and planning research projects.
Building on the strengths of the First Edition, this new and
expanded version includes:
- The addition of chapter introductions, summaries and key terms
to guide the reader through the text
- Three brand new chapters focusing on: research and information
on the Net; discourse research; ethnographic and discursive
qualitative analysis
- Up-to-date examples of research in action
- New material on questionnaire design, composite measurement
and techniques of quantitative and qualitative interviewing
An invaluable guide for students from across the social
sciences, this wide-ranging volume is also a key resource for
practitioners in a variety of applied areas including nursing,
social work, the criminal justice system, teaching and
education.
