Each chapter looks at the background and context to a classic and contemporary study and provides a summary of them, before going on to evaluate areas of agreement and convergence, disagreement and divergence, and strengths and weaknesses. Each of these areas focuses on theoretical, methodological\/statistical, and ethical issues. Finally, suggestions are made regarding applications, implications, and future research directions. In so doing, the book helps students learn how to deal with primary sources, including how to extract the most relevant information, assess strengths and weaknesses, know what to look for when evaluating a study, and understand how it relates to other research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridging the gap from A-level to degree level study, this is the ideal resource for undergraduate students in psychology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55828196360566,"sku":"9781032828985","price":58.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_35078681_9c329eb6-b3a5-4b0b-8427-f57fc7a39a4c.jpg?v=1751550799","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032828985-key-studies-in-psychology","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
