"The author’s conceptual approach is very complementary to the manner in which I have constructed my advanced course. Namely, I emphasize the development of critical thinking skills in the design and critique of experiments….Overall, I think this is an excellent approach to research design. The author does an outstanding job of integrating real-world examples into the text. This is an extremely valuable feature. I would seek to adopt this text for one, or depending on the final version, both of my courses."
"I found the manuscript very well written. I liked the use of novel and interesting examples from the psychological literature – too often, research methods textbooks recycle all the old Campbell and Stanley examples verbatim….Overall, a fine piece of textbook writing."
"I liked the plan and organization…the book would be a useful addition to the field….I like the use of a core set of studies to illustrate principles of design and analysis through the text; that should work very well….The approach is distinctive."
"The book idea is a very good one in my opinion, and much needed in the research methods area . . . very well organizaed, well-thought out, and well written. . . . The organization is easy to follow, the material presented in an interesting way, and the use of examples is excellent."
