| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A wide range of research methods are used in psychology. These methods vary by the sources of information that are drawn on, how that information is sampled, and the types of instruments used in data collection. Methods also vary by whether they collect qualitative data, quantitative data or both. Qualitative psychological research is where the research findings are not arrived at by statistical or other quantitative procedures. Quantitative psychological research is where the research findings result from mathematical modeling and statistical estimation or statistical inference. This book studies various psychological research methodologies including the evaluation approaches, natural experiment, case study, interview, and observation.
