Atkinson (physical education and health, U. of Toronto) has produced a reference for undergraduate students conducting research in sport and research, either as part of that curriculum or in the context of another subject area. Alphabetically arranged articles explain 40 concepts or terms; what they are used for in the research, how to use them; problems, pitfalls, and controversies; and where to read more about them. Among the concepts are archival records, ethnography, inferential statistics, ontology, reliability, research proposals, and variables. There is no index.
