The necessity for this book primarily arose from the long-term recognition that many post-graduates do not seem to be suitably equipped to consider the multiple nuances involved in conducting high quality psychological research. In addition, their available pathways to suitably educate themselves about research designs, research methods, data cleaning, statistical analyses, academic writing, and so on were multiple and somewhat convoluted. What was needed was a ‘one-stop shop’ discussing current research dilemmas to inform and assist them in their research training. An informed collection of current research methods and analyses issues providing a broad overview of the most relevant research topics for thesis students and other researchers in this field was considered to be of the most value, with clear directions also provided to explore more detailed discussions about each topic.
