The Process of Research in Psychology employs the pedagogical
approach of spaced repetition to present a student-friendly
introduction to conducting research in psychology. Drawing on more
than 17 years of teaching experience, best-selling author Dawn M.
McBride covers topics with step-by-step explanations to help
students understand the full process of designing, conducting, and
presenting a research study. Early chapters introduce important
concepts for developing research ideas, subject sampling, ethics,
and data collection; more detailed coverage of these topics is
included in "More About" chapters to provide instructors with
flexibility in their teaching. Concepts and skills relevant to more
than one stage of the research process are covered in multiple
contexts, providing repeated exposure to the topics students often
struggle with but that are the most important in gaining research
skills.
Lab Manual for Psychological Research and Statistical Analysis
serves as an additional resource for students and instructors in a
research methods, statistics, or combined course where classroom
and/or laboratory exercises are conducted. Packed with exercises,
checklists, and how-to sections, this robust lab manual gives
students hands-on guidance and practice for conducting and
analyzing their own psychological research. Dawn M. McBride and J.
Cooper Cutting provide students with additional opportunities for
practice in a course with challenging material that requires
practice and repetition for deeper understanding.
The Lab Manual for Psychological Research, Fourth Edition provides
students with opportunities to practice and apply the knowledge and
skills learned in their research methods course. Developed for use
in a lab course or as take-home review, the manual contains four
types of practice: exercises that connect to specific concepts;
exercises for developing a research project; APA-style exercises
that become progressively more complex; and instruction for how to
avoid plagiarism. This comprehensive and practical manual can be
used with Dawn M. McBride's best-selling The Process of Research in
Psychology, Fourth Edition or as a supplement to other core texts.
The Process of Research and Statistical Analysis in Psychology
presents integrated coverage of psychological research methods and
statistical analysis to illustrate how these two crucial processes
work together to uncover new information. Best-selling author Dawn
M. McBride draws on over 20 years of experience using a practical
step-by-step approach in her teaching to guide students through the
full process of designing, conducting, and presenting a research
study. The text opens with introductory discussions of why
psychologists conduct and analyze research before digging into the
process of designing an experiment and performing statistical
analyses. Each chapter concludes with exercises and activities that
promote critical thinking, the smart consumption of research, and
practical application. Students will come away with a complete
picture of the role that research plays in psychology as well as
their everyday lives.
