The only book to examine reliability and validity of research in
social science AND built environment setting Essential reading for
global researchers at undergraduate and postgraduate level using
all major methods of research Real case studies by recognised
experts covering hot topics like BIM, Lean, Housing and
Sustainability show the importance of validity and how to ensure
research is reliable
Leadership and sustainability have separately been the subject of
numerous studies in a built environment context over the years, but
they have yet to be addressed together. The real impact of
legislation and guidelines designed to promote sustainability
within the construction industry is closely linked to the
leadership behind it, as this book explores in a variety of ways.
Featuring research from 5 different continents, the international
scope of this book allows a comparison of experiences in different
types of economies and cultures. The interdisciplinarity of this
subject is also reflected in the backgrounds of the contributors,
with a significant number of perspectives derived from business and
management research. The issues examined in this book are essential
reading for all researchers, decision-makers and graduate students
in the built environment.
Built environment students are not always familiar with the range
of different research approaches they could be using for their
projects. Whether you are undertaking a postgraduate doctoral
programme or facing an undergraduate or masters dissertation, this
book provides general advice, as well as 13 detailed case studies
from 16 universities in 7 countries, to help you get to grips with
quantitative and qualitative methods, mixed methods of data
collection, action research, and more.
