"The examples are invaluable both for students learning to design and
carry out their own research as well as those who are learning the essential
skills of sophisticated and critical consumers of research."
— Wendy Wintermute, University of Southern Colorado
"Terrific teaching tool for research methods in the behavioral sciences! The articles bring the more dry and abstract concepts down to earth, and the topics covered by the articles are intrinsically interesting to college students. The best way I've found yet that allows students to learn how to interpret journal articles easily and relatively pain free. An excellent teaching tool I wouldn't be without!"
— Phyllis Anastasio, St. Joseph's University
"Good length, good discussion questions, and well-rounded topics. I'd definitely use it again."
— Karen L. Gutshall, Rutgers University
"Good range of articles covering the major research strategies. Articles are easy to read and understand."
— Jan DeAmicis, Utica College
"An outstanding book. [I] recommend it for all social science (sociology and psychology) and social work students. The author has put together qualitative and quantitative literature with examples and exercises in a complementary way.”
— Jitendra Kapoor, Alabama A&M University
“It works very well to illustrate points in the Babbie methods books (e.g., The Practice of Social Research). I give homework assignments in which [students] show how each article demonstrates principles of different methods (survey, experimental, etc.).”
— Charles F. Emmons, Gettysburg College
