This edition offers more guidance on evaluating and critiquing research evidence. Other revisions include more in-depth coverage of both qualitative and quantitative research and a new chapter on developing and testing new instruments.Note: The for-sale Student Resource guide to accompany the text is now fully revised to meet emerging graduate course needs.
