  • Equips you with practical data visualisation tools to create graphs and tables.
  • Shows you how to prepare and present your research for assessment, publication and dissemination.
  • Covers key issues facing today’s social scientists, such as making research reproducible.

Very nice textbook for beginners in R. Complementary to other basic methodology books.

This seems like a great book for a graduate student doing their 1st (2nd, 3rd...) study. It goes over things that have to be thought of during the experiment cycle. As a teacher for undergrads, however, this is not a book that I could use in my teaching. Nevertheless, there were some cool tips for R use that I didn't know earlier! As a side note, the figures and grey lettering seemed somewhat off, as if too small dpi was used.

SAGE Research Methods is a research methods tool created to help researchers, faculty and students with their research projects. SAGE Research Methods links over 175,000 pages of SAGE’s renowned book, journal and reference content with truly advanced search and discovery tools. Researchers can explore methods concepts to help them design research projects, understand particular methods or identify a new method, conduct their research, and write up their findings. Since SAGE Research Methods focuses on methodology rather than disciplines, it can be used across the social sciences, health sciences, and more.

With SAGE Research Methods, researchers can explore their chosen method across the depth and breadth of content, expanding or refining their search as needed; read online, print, or email full-text content; utilize suggested related methods and links to related authors from SAGE Research Methods' robust library and unique features; and even share their own collections of content through Methods Lists. SAGE Research Methods contains content from over 720 books, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and handbooks, the entire “Little Green Book,” and "Little Blue Book” series, two Major Works collating a selection of journal articles, and specially commissioned videos.
