Elements of Research Design

About this book

Titus Hjelm's guide to designing a research project is an invaluable primer for students embarking on dissertations, theses and other research projects.

The book goes beyond simple introductions to methods to help researchers identify their priorities and goals from the outset. A "pocket supervisor" for researchers, it shows how projects are not limited by conventional and siloed steps of research, but are instead holistic processes.

Key features of the text include:

• an accessible guide to all key elements of research design and their connectivity;

• a concise and road-tested approach to save researchers time and effort;

• practical tasks to help readers through their projects.

The book succinctly sets out the best approaches to each element of research including questions, literature reviews, data collection and analysis, and covers other important aspects including ethics. It builds into a toolkit that equips readers with the knowledge and confidence to conduct more effective research and, ultimately, achieve better outcomes and satisfaction.
