| Summary: | This set addresses issues of research design within the experimental sciences broadly speaking, particularly the social/behavioral sciences, neurosciences, and biomedical and life sciences.Entries provide summaries of advantages and disadvantages of often-used designs, along with illustrations using real-life examples.Two topics set this work apart from similar works: a review of important research articles that are seminal in the field and helped to determine the direction, and a review of popular tools (such as software) used to analyze results.Over 500 signed entries organized A-to-Z are available both in print and electronic formats for ease of access and use.Cross-references and suggested readings at the end of each entry, along with an annotated selected bibliography, guide users to additional resources.
