Description

An essential resource for those conducting research in nursing, the unique feature of this book is that it focuses on research designs, using a paradigm based on levels of theory. The classical form of each research design is presented, along with variations, with examples provided. Each chapter presents the strengths and weaknesses of the design, in addition to sampling, methods, reliability, validity, data analysis, human subject issues, proposal development and critiques.
