Absolute life saver for my first ever masters research proposal. The research is public health related and not psychology but this book really helped me understand the minefield of methodologies out there! Recommend!

If you are struggling to get your head around research methods then buy this book it is a life saver!
It breaks everything down so simply and then builds it back up again so you can understand it.
Between this and the lecture slides I passed research methods.
