- Research Design : Creating Robust Approaches for the Social Sciences, Hardcover by Gorard, Stephen, ISBN 1446249018, ISBN-13 9781446249017, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US
Arguing that research design is often not taught to new researchers in favor of data collection and analysis methods, Gorard (education and well-being, U. of Durham, UK) provides new researchers in the social sciences with a guide to designing research. He describes a simplified cycle for a field or program of research and how it relates to the elements of design, the rationale for research designs, research questions and how they are generated and expressed to find useful and meaningful answers, the argument for research claims, and the nature of causal claims. He discusses the elements of a design, including the selection of cases of interest, the allocation of cases to sub-groups and their comparison, timing and sequence, and interventions to be evaluated, and advanced issues, such as less common designs, threats to validity, differentiating between patterns or "noise" in the data, and ethics and conflicts of interest.
