- catalog abstract ""Designed to provide students with a nontechnical, easy-to understand guide, Research Made Simple will help relieve the anxiety often associated with research methods courses. Unlike other texts that prepare you to be a producer of research, this handbook enables you to be an informed consumer of research carried out by others. Author Raymond Mark provides the raw materials that will allow students to read a research report, understand its finding, and judge the accuracy of its conclusion. This concise, practical volume covers the full range of material presented in most social science methods courses, but can also be used as a "how-to" guide for professionals on the basics of the research process. A unique feature of this volume is the presence of an entire chapter devoted to gender- and culture-sensitive research that addresses the increasing need for diversity in research. Equipped with tables, appendixes, and a glossary, this user volume friendly will make research methods highly approachable."--Jacket.".
