Description and Table of Contents
Description
There are many books available on research methodology but few cover the first steps in how to get started on identifying and planning a research project. This book meets that need. It is a clear and comprehensive guide to the processes involved in the preparation and presentation of a research proposal, intended for use by allied health students and practising therapists wishing to evaluate aspects of their clinical practice. Its structure follows the progress of the research process, from identification of a problem requiring investigation to the communication of the findings. Written by a multidisciplinary team, it provides step-by-step guidance to this difficult task.
