xiv, 367 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm "In this book we strive to address two audiences: the counselor-in-training and the emerging researcher. If you are just being introduced to research in counseling, you will find this book helpful in providing an understanding of the primary methods of research used in the counseling profession. However, we also attempt to provide a bridge to individuals who have an understanding of research and wish to apply concepts to design studies. Hence, we feel this book will be useful to the master's student just beginning to understand research as well as to those considering topics for a thesis, dissertation, or the development of an initial study. To accommodate this broad audience, we include sections on research designs, respective to the content covered, near the end of each chapter. To assist with synthesizing and applying the content of each chapter, we provide a "Suggested Activities" section at the end of each chapter"-- The counselor as practitioner-scholar The research process Ethical and multicultural issues in counseling research Types of research Fundamental concepts in quantitative research Examining relationships Examining dinfferences between groups Examining differences within groups and single-case research designs Synthesizing research resuls using meta-analysis / A.
