商品簡介
Even though few psychology majors end up pursuing a career as a researcher in the field, Morling (U. of Delaware) wants to enable them to become critical consumers of research. Rather than the typical research methods text emphasis on research production, she concentrates on tools for evaluating research claims. The text features a "Three Claims, Four Validities" framework for identifying and evaluating claims; learning activities; and overviews of descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, presenting research reports in APA style; statistical tables; and a glossary.
