There is a vast array of research methods and statistics books available to the student researcher, some more specialist than others. However, until now no research methods book has been geared specifically to the needs of both clinical and health psychologists in one volume. The rationale is to provide a self-contained book for health and clinical psychology students, researchers and practitioners. The psychology of healthcare is treated as an applied field with special relevance to clinical disorders, disease prevention and health promotion. The research methods described and illustrated are those particularly useful to the field and cover both qualitative and quantitative approaches. These are widely regarded as being the core procedures within the healthcare field. Research Methods for Clinical and Health Psychology has an uncluttered presentation with a clear and concise narrative. Boxes, diagrams and tables highlight key points and provide relevant examples, worked from start to finish, of the procedures used in designing and analyzing studies.
Chapter outlines and summaries are provided and also a glossary of useful terms to help students and researchers with independent study and learning. Research Methods for Clinical and Health Psychology will be invaluable reading for clinical and health psychology students and trainees, as well as those in nursing, medical and other healthcare departments taking an advanced psychology option.
