Nytt för denna upplaga är bland annat följande:

Sagt om boken"Denna upplaga har uppdaterats och enstaka kapitel har slagits samman samtidigt som några har lagts till, särskilt vad gäller sociala medier, stordata samt feministiska perspektiv på grundläggande forskningsprinciper. Brymans samhällsvetenskapliga metoder innehåller cirka tusen referenser, ett genomarbetat register på över 600 uppslagsord, en förkortningsordlista samt en ordförklaringslista på närmare 300 uppslagsord. Boken kan användas som referensbok. Översättningen är utomordentlig."
