"Bailey and Burch’s Research Methods in Applied Behavior Analysis, 2nd Edition is another one in the long line of books from these authors that expertly addresses core issues in our field. Research is the oxygen that we behavior analysts require to survive and thrive. Our successes are due to our adherence to the scientific method and carefully planned and implemented research to support our clinical efforts. This book is an excellent resource to guide the research process from the very beginning of idea formulation to the application of research findings."

"This new version of Research Methods in Applied Behavior Analysis is a wonderful resource for young researchers! The text is very engaging and easy to read, rare qualities for a textbook on research methods. The chapters guide junior researchers through very practical steps for designing and conducting research. I particularly liked the explanation of the logic behind the research designs. The success of an undergraduate thesis or master’s thesis is heavily dependent upon the skill of the research mentor. Having this book as a resource gives the junior researcher the wisdom and guidance of a widely-published secondary mentor, Dr. Jon Bailey."
