Operacionalization of Variables is a must for researchers

This is an excellent clear and easy description on how to do research, both social and health sciences research. Once you are able to link the theory to the practice (operacionalization) you have construed knowledge and are better able to transmit it to the readers of the research report. The logic and coherence make this book easy to follow and understand for university level students. Basic in teaching research, directed to psychologists.

The best stats text book around

I have taught statistics and research methods all around the globe, I have searched high and low for a textbook that will make the world of statistics a more friendly one for my apprehensive students. Well - this is the one. It's well written - sets a high standard yet does so with ease and reader friendly arrangement of information, examples and calculation manuals. There's a newer version out which is as reccommended as this one.
