Includes bibliographical references and index.

"In the Third Edition of The Psychology Research Handbook editors Frederick T. L. Leong and James T. Austin have assembled experienced expert researchers to provide graduate students and research assistants with a comprehensive framework for conducting many types of psychology research. The book is organized around the idea of a "research script," following the step-by-step process of research planning, design, data collection, analysis, and disseminating research. The volume contains 37 chapters, some coauthored by advanced graduate students to give their fellow students a touch of the "real world," adding to the clarity and practicality of many chapters. Of special value are chapters on topics typically missing from introductory methods texts including applying for research grants, dealing with journal editors and reviewers, working within research teams, and cross-cultural research. New chapters include Power and Evidence, IRB as Critical Collaborators in Research, Alternative Data Collection Strategies, Structural Equation Modeling and Replicability and Reproducibility. A comprehensive, easy-to-understand guide to the entire research process, this book quickly and efficiently equips advanced students and research assistants to conduct a full research project"-- Provided by publisher.
