Product Information
With enlightening examples and illustrations drawn from counseling literature, Research Design in Counseling fully addresses the common problems that confront counseling researchers. Heppner, Kivlighan, and Wampold's evenhanded approach provides students with an understanding of all kinds of research, including single-subject and survey research. Writing more than just a how-to book, the authors present a compelling rationale for the necessity of counselors conducting research - and argue for a greater integration of science and practice domains in order for work in each to be more effective. And with recent and ongoing changes being brought about by managed care, scientific thinking in professional practice is becoming a necessity for many practitioners.Product Identifiers

ReviewsWere I to describe this book to a colleague, I would say that it is an essential tool for the researcher. Its depth of explanation and coverage of research designs makes it a handy reference for designing future studies., I would describe this text as simply the best research book in counseling available on the market. It is written at a high enough conceptual level to challenge students, yet it is thorough and comprehensive in style.
