The test studies correlational, case study, survey, ethnography, experimental and multi-method research techniques. It also includes illustrative studies, methodological principles and an extended sample study that guides readers in critical evaluation.

Case studies allow readers to assess how each method actually works, what kind of information it will provide and the problems which may arise in using that approach.
