And for any course in quantitative methods it would be my first choice. The clear and interesting communicative style draws in the reader both to an understanding of some of the basis building blocks of quantitative research but also to some of answers to critiques of certain ways of using statistics. Those wanting just to be able to understand quantitative research as well as the statistically unsure wanting to use it are unlikely to be disappointed. There is a growing need for Daniel Muijs's text also in order to respond to the burgeoning in interest in mixed methodology' - Professor Liz Todd, Newcastle UniversityDewey Edition22CLASSIFICATION_METADATA{"IsNonfiction":["No"],"IsOther":["No"],"IsAdult":["No"],"MuzeFormatDesc":["Trade Paperback"],"IsChildren":["No"],"Genre":["EDUCATION","COMPUTERS"],"Topic":["Research","Mathematical & Statistical Software","Statistics"],"IsTextBook":["Yes"],"IsFiction":["No"]}IllustratedYesDewey Decimal370.72Edition DescriptionRevised editionTable Of ContentIntroduction to Quantitative ResearchExperimental and Quasi-Experimental ResearchDesigning Non-Experimental StudiesValidity, Reliability and GeneralizabilityIntroduction to PASW Statistics (IBM SPSS) and the Data SetUnivariate StatisticsBivariate Analysis: Comparing Two GroupsBivariate Analysis: Looking at the Relationship between Two VariablesMultivariate Analysis: Using Regression Models to Look at the Relationship between Several Predictors and One Dependent VariableUsing Analysis of Variance to Compare More Than Two GroupsDeveloping Scales and Measures: Item and Factor AnalysisOne Step beyond: Introduction to Multilevel Modeling and Structural Equation ModelingSynopsisThis accessible and authoritative introduction is essential for education students and researchers needing to use quantitative methods for the first time.
