ADVANCE PRAISE FOR WRITING UP QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH IN THE SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES
“Fallon brings much-needed accessibility to the daunting world of quantitative methods. Filled with contemporary references to pop culture—including sports, music, and television—key concepts are creatively introduced. Succinct, humorous, and thoughtfully organized, Writing up Quantitative Research in the Social and Behavioral Sciences breaks the mold for teaching novice researchers how to effectively communicate their work.” – Diana Cohen, Associate Professor of Political Science, Central Connecticut State University “This book covers the ‘how to’ of writing research projects in a highly engaging manner. Graduate students who are preparing to work on their master’s thesis will get a lot out of this book. Undergraduates doing a thesis or a capstone project will also find this book very helpful. Instructors teaching research methods in the social sciences will find this book makes a useful course companion.” – Damon Mitchell, Professor
