Inhaltsangabe

This study provides a practical description of the research process, taking readers sequentially through the basic steps of a project: groundwork, measurement, design, analysis and interpretation. It also addresses essential background issues, such as the underlying philosophy of the various research methods and the socio-political issues that arise when researching in service settings. Clinical and counselling research methodology is currently developing rapidly, and psychologists are expanding their repertoire of methods. In this book, the authors present a balanced appraisal of both traditional and emergent methods. They reaffirm the scientist-practitioner model that clinical and counselling psychologists should be trained to be both competent clinicians and competent researchers.
