Experimental and Quasi-Experimental Designs for Research 14 reviews
Donald T. Campbell, Julian Stanley
Wadsworth Publishing, 1963
A continuing resource for me
Campbell & Stanley was a key resource when I was in graduate school. It was almost "Scripture" for those of us taking research methods courses. Even after all these years, I still consult this volume when I teach a course on research methods, to clarify questions about validity and so on.
This is a brief volume, with only 71 pages of text. But an awful lot of useful information is crammed into ...

A Primer on Regression Artifacts 1 review
Donald T. Campbell PhD, David A. Kenny PhD
The Guilford Press, 2002
Fantastic
Donald Campbell was one of the most respected researchers of all time. This book is a gem. The problem of RA in research is sooo over looked that all researchers need to read this book are re-familiarize themselves with how RA can creep into their research. Excellent.

We need a specification of the multiple interests potentially threatened by social science research: the ...

Wadsworth Publishing, 2001
Excellent for doctoral students
I am a doctoral student in public health and recommend this book to my fellow doctoral students out there. It is a thorough and comprehensive text on research methods. I have gone through quite a few texts with similar titles and this stands out as the best.
