Pearson - Research Methods: A Process of Inquiry, 7/E - Anthony M. Graziano & Michael L. Raulin

In this section:

Description

For courses in Statistics, Research Methods, or Experimental Methods.

This comprehensive text explores the entire range of research methodologies in psychology, using a carefully constructed programmatic approach to introduce topics and systematically build on the earlier presentations. This text emphasizes research concepts, as well as specific, technical research strategies, to help students develop an understanding of the underlying rational-empirical processes of science and to gain specific research skills. It provides clearly written explanations of concepts and numerous examples drawn from all areas of psychology to enable students to develop sophisticated understanding of the research process.

Make the connection between research methods and actual research.

Historical Lessons, Cost of Neglect, and Understanding the Concept boxes illustrate key points for students with vivid and interesting examples.
Putting It into Practice sections encourage students to extend the concepts covered in each chapter to real-world problems, thus providing concrete examples that will help them remember the principles covered in the chapter while also enhancing critical thinking skills.
Ethical Principles. We have expanded our treatment of research ethics (including coverage of both human and animal research). Ethical issues are now discussed in every single chapter, integrating this important topic into every aspect of the research process.

Pedagogical Features

It includes many pedagogical features, including chapter outlines and summaries and Quick-Check Review Questions (with answers included in an appendix) at the end of each major section that allows students to review what they have just learned before moving onto the next section.
A Decision-Tree Flowchart (Appendix D) helps students to select appropriate statistical procedures for their research studies. A functional version of this flowchart system is included on the website, which links the students to the tutorials for both computerized and manual computation of statistical procedures.
A Research Design Checklist (Appendix E) walks students through all of the checks of the research design and procedures before beginning their study.
A glossary with over 500 defined terms.

Supplemental Material

The most extensive supplements package in the market, including:

Instructor Supplements

A computerized test bank with nearly 2500 multiple-choice items.
A set of PowerPoint lectures for the course.
Instructor’s Manual that organizes all of the resources available to the instructor.

Student Supplements

Supplemental material available with the text includes MyResearchKit, which includes an Interactive Study Guide and Lab Manual along with tutorials on statistical analysis, library research, and APA writing style. It also includes theoretical coverage of statistical concepts for those instructors who want to integrate the teaching of research and statistics. Organization by chapter and inclusion of a Table of Contents and Index make it easy to find and reference any topic.
The text can also be packaged with the SPSS for Windows, Integrated Student Version CD-ROM for at an additional cost.

New To This Edition

Extended coverage of ethical principles in research, providing an ethics section in every single chapter, which is integrated with the content of that chapter.
Shortened the text by two chapters (from 15 to 13 chapters) to make it fit more comfortably into a one-semester course. We moved some of the deleted material to appendices and/or the accompanying student website.
Extensively revised text with new research examples, updated coverage, better integration, and improved clarity and readability.
Added new Understanding the Concept boxes that explain the underlying principles behind various procedures or concepts. These boxes complement the Cost of Neglect and Historical Lesson boxes introduced in the sixth edition. Those boxes provide vivid examples of what happens when one fails to follow basic design principles and how we can learn from earlier research how to improve current research.
Updated Putting It into Practice features challenge students to apply the concepts they have learned in the chapter to everyday situations, and expand critical thinking skills.

Anthony M. Graziano is Professor Emeritus, Psychology, at the State University of New York, Buffalo. He was Co-Director of the Research Center for Children and Youth and served as the Director of the Clinical Area. Graziano received the B.A. degree from Columbia College and Ph.D. from Purdue University. He completed a clinical internship and a postdoctoral fellowship in child-clinical psychology at the Devereux Foundation. From 1961 to 1968 he developed and operated the first behavioral treatment program in the country for children with autism. Graziano was the first to employ relaxation and systematic desensitization techniques to help teach self-control skills to children with autism. He also served briefly as the Acting Director of the Kennedy Center for children with developmental disabilities. He has been a consultant to agencies in Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania.

Graziano's research and writing has focused on children and families, and has included: child psychopathology; developmental disabilities; the treatment of childhood disorders; children's fears and phobias; behavior modification; parent training; community psychology; child abuse and neglect; family therapy; and cultural history. His most recent research was on the use of corporal punishment in child rearing, and he has been a long-time opponent of corporal punishment. He is editor, co-author, or author of fifteen books, 86 journal articles and presentations at professional meetings, and a dozen op-ed newspaper columns. Dr. Graziano has been a member of the Board of Directors of the Eastern Psychological Association, People, Inc., a Western New York agency serving persons with developmental disabilities, and the editorial board of the journal, Behavior Modification. When not playing with his grandchildren, Graziano passionately pursues cooking, tennis, carpentry, masonry, drawing cartoons, and traveling Europe with Sheila, his wife of 50 years.

Michael Raulin is a clinical associate professor at the State University of New York, Buffalo, where he has been a faculty member since 1978. He received his BS and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin at Madison. At Buffalo, he was the director of the Psychological Services Center--the research and training clinic for the Ph.D. program in clinical psychology--and also headed the Ph.D. clinical psychology program for several years. He founded and directed the department’s Anxiety Disorders Clinic and maintained a small private practice for 20 years.

Dr. Raulin’s research has always focused on psychopathology, with most of his work on risk factors in schizophrenia. He has published 30 articles or chapters and is author of an abnormal psychology text. He served on the editorial board of the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology and the Journal of Abnormal Psychology and reviewed papers for nearly 20 different journals and grant applications for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. He has been active in psychological affairs, locally, regionally, and nationally. He was president of the Psychological Association of Western New York, chaired the program committees for the Society for Research in Psychopathology and the Eastern Psychological Association, and was president of the National Association of Directors of Psychology Training Clinics and secretary of Society for Research in Psychopathology. He has an excellent reputation for his teaching, with evaluations that consistently place him among the top instructors at the university. He has won awards for teaching and public service and is listed in Who’s Who in Among Rising Young Americans, Who’s Who Among Health Service Professionals, Who’s Who in Science and Engineering, and Who’s Who in Medicine and Health Care.
