Psychology Research Methods
A Writing Intensive Approach
"Psychology Research Methods is a unique undergraduate research methods book that provides practical tools and exercises for students to develop competencies conducting psychological research. Its writing intensive approach ensures that students actively develop research and writing skills that will support them beyond their undergraduate training. I especially appreciate that this book does not merely present the concepts and theory that undergird psychological research; it immerses students in the research process itself. I look forward to integrating these materials into my own courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels." --Chad Danyluck, Assistant Professor in Health Psychology, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada "During a visit to Dr. Brondolo’s lab years ago, I sat in on one of her Research Methods classes and was struck by how actively engaged the students were in the process of conducting research; not just reading it or being lectured to about it, but actively being involved in the process. Students talked with enthusiasm, not dread, about their writing assignments. I left thinking "what a great way to teach methods". With Psychology Research Methods: A Writing Intensive Approach, Dr. Brondolo provides students with step-by-step instructions on how to identify a disorder of public health significance, research the disorder and risk factors for the disorder, and write an APA style grant proposing a randomized clinical trial to test a chosen treatment for the disorder. This approach makes research "come alive" for students and it is no surprise that students of Dr. Brondolo’s have pursued graduate training in research at such a high rate." --Douglas L. Delahanty, Professor, Department of Psychological Sciences, Kent State University "The introductory chapter to Psychology Research Methods: A writing intensive approach, sets the stage for a culturally sensitive, practical approach to studying and performing research. The remaining chapters do not disappoint as they dig deeper into topics like the significance of public health and understanding theory from a range of perspectives. Also addressed are subjects such as writing effectively about research as well as sharing scholarly ideas appropriately. This textbook is a warm blend between a thorough, independent self-study and a comprehensive approach to guiding students through the process of completing a quality research project. It offers a practical writing guide not just students, but also for instructors and life-long learners who may need reminders as to how to prepare and present quality research ideas. The color-coded highlights, tables and realistic samples provide a clear model of what to produce and the quality that would be expected when publishing and making proposals. The specific emphasis on selecting topical research subjects, being organized and demonstrating how to use correct strategies that can help future and current researchers stay on task, will undoubtedly make this textbook a practical and useful tool in the classroom as well as a valuable resource once the course has been completed. Well done on demonstrating how passion can meet purpose and on producing a quality tool for students, instructors and anyone who loves to produce quality research." --Mellisa Gibbons Tankard, PhD, Educational Psychologist, Bermuda College, Paget, Bermuda "Psychology Research Methods: A Writing Intensive Approach by Elizabeth Brondolo is an in-depth, well-written and readable book for undergraduate psychology research methods students. The chapters are highly detailed, approachable, and presented in a thoughtful manner. Written through the lens of research in public health and behavior, the author covers the important topics in research methods, emphasizing the process of research design and methodology. Its unique approach of including selections from primary research articles for students to read and critically review is an excellent active learning approach to the research methods course. The writing intensive activities in each chapter designed to highlight and identify each component of research design, procedure, and analysis, as well as the construction of APA-style manuscripts is particularly helpful to concretize the material for students. I appreciate this writing intensive approach to research methods in Psychology and will use it in my Research Methods course." --Carolyn G.
