Written in a clear compelling manner, ‘Research Methodology and Techniques in Psychology’ is the book that takes readers through the research process from reading the literature to writing up a research report. It is pedagogically driven, interactive, and highly applied to engage and motivate students who are taking what is often considered to be a “drudge” requirement. This brief and basic introduction to research methods in psychology in a relaxed style, at a moderate level of detail, and with a rich mix of pedagogy to encourage students from a variety of backgrounds and academic preparation and to help connect students to the material. This friendly and supportive presentation of the basics conveys to students the excitement and fun of the research enterprise and involves them in doing research rather than just memorizing another term for an exam.
