The Information Professional's Guide to Quantitative Research : A Practical Handbook


Description

There has been a long tradition of quantitative research in the information profession. However, even the most cursory examination of research actually undertaken in this area demonstrates several acute problems: inadequate use of relevant prior work; poor sample selection; inadequate attention to methodological aspects; and lack of statistical analysis and techniques. The authors now fulfil this evident need with this companion volume to their respected work Qualitative Research for the Information Professional. A key strength of both titles is that they are intended specifically for the use of information professionals, and are tailored to their needs in the choice of case studies and examples selected. In this practical manual, each chapter will include focus questions, an introduction to the subject matter, clear exposition of what are sometimes complex issues, scenarios set in a context relevant to the reader, and suggestions for personal reflection and further activity and reading. Today's electronic world presents challenging opportunities to researchers and research-users alike, and the text fully reflects their need to face these implications in their work. Covering all the latest techniques, this is an essential aid for the new or seasoned researcher.

Originally published in mini hardcover (paper over board) editions, four of Todd Parr's very first books are now available in a chunky board book format with brand new cover designs. Bold and bright, funny and reassuring, these are perfect packages for preschoolers and will stand up to the repeated readings they are guaranteed to get!
