Items related to Research Methods in Psychology
The well-respected author team provides coverage of research methods including experimentation, small-n experimentation, observation and measurement through a research methods approach (as opposed to a research topics approach). This text, the standard in the field, is comprehensive and clearly-written, with content examples blended into each discussion. This edition expands coverage on non-experimental methods. For a content approach, refer to Kantowitz/Roediger/Elmes (West, 1994).

About the Author:
David G. Elmes is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Washington and Lee University, where he taught for forty years. He earned his B.A. with high honors from the University of Virginia and completed the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in psychology there. Dr. Elmes was an adjunct professor at Hampden-Sydney College, a research associate for a year in the Human Performance Center of the University of Michigan, and a Visiting Fellow of University College at the University of Oxford. At Washington and Lee, he co-directed the Cognitive Science Program and chaired the Department of Psychology for ten years. Professor Elmes edited READINGS IN EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY and DIRECTORY OF RESEARCH IN PSYCHOLOGY AT PRIMARILY UNDERGRADUATE INSTITUTIONS, and is coauthor of RESEARCH METHODS IN PSYCHOLOGY (Cengage, 2012, with B. H. Kantowitz and H. L. Roediger III).
Review:
"The topics are covered in just the right depth for my students. The beginning students aren't overwhelmed with extremely complex designs or undefined terminology that is unfamiliar to them. However, the important topics are covered in enough depth that the students actually do have a basic understanding of how to design, conduct, and critically read research by the end of the course."
"The key strengths are readability, good coverage at the level I need, chapter exercises, and the repetition of the important concepts."
"The changes made for APA style standards, particularly for graphs and reference formats, are helpful and up-to-date."
