Description
`The precise way in which the authors take the reader through the processes of doing research is helpful to anyone embarking on research with children, so EPs in training, who have chosen children as their subjects for research, would find this book helpful. Practising EPs are recommended to borrow a copy from their localuUniversity library when considering a child-centered research project' - Educational Psychology
This book provides a comprehensive and practical introduction to undertaking a research project with children.
Divided into three sections, the first introduces the main theories and approaches in doing research with children. In the second part, the different frameworks and techniques for conducting both qualitative and quantitative research with children are outlined. The final section develops an important underlying theme of the book - the unique nature of children as research subjects - by introducing special ethical issues raised in research with children.
