Quantitative Research in Education: A Primer 2nd Edition, Kindle Edition

"The book provides a reference point for beginning educational researchers to grasp the most pertinent elements of designing and conducting research…"

— Megan Tschannen-Moran, The College of William & Mary

Quantitative Research in Education: A Primer, Second Edition is a brief and practical text designed to allay anxiety about quantitative research. Award-winning authors Wayne K. Hoy and Curt M. Adams first introduce readers to the nature of research and science, and then present the meaning of concepts and research problems as they dispel notions that quantitative research is too difficult, too theoretical, and not practical. Rich with concrete examples and illustrations, the Primer emphasizes conceptual understanding and the practical utility of quantitative methods while teaching strategies and techniques for developing original research hypotheses.

The Second Edition includes suggestions for empirical investigation and features a new section on self-determination theory, examples from the latest research, a concluding chapter illustrating the practical applications of quantitative research, and much more. This accessible Primer is perfect for students and researchers who want a quick understanding of the process of scientific inquiry and who want to learn how to effectively create and test ideas.

Quantitative Research in Education A Primer

“Greatest strength is the comprehensiveness of the treatment”

“A reference point for beginning educational researchers to grasp the most pertinent elements of designing and conducting research”

Provides all the essential information for quantitative research in a concise book.

A book on research in education but quite well can be accommodated into other social science areas. A great easy to follow publication especially if someone is new to statistical analysis.

There are two strong chapters in this publication that are clearer and more relevant that the sources presently being used by my students. Chapter 3 is particularly well written and clear and builds a progression in terms of understanding statistics. Chapter 4 is also effective however I would probably place this before Chapter 3. In terms of detail there is probably too much in Chapter 4 on Hypothesis whereas Chapter 3 could be developed perhaps by the inclusion of more examples.

Very helpful book that provides a basis for students undertaking education based research.

For those that are interested in doing research that is quantitative in nature, this book is useful, although we tend to advise a more qualitative approach. Therefore I can see myself dipping in and out of this book as it provides some good explanations and there is follow through. I would have welcomed more working examples as this would have concretised everything a lot more.

This is a good supplement to the research methods module, especially for those students who are entering into the field of education. The quantitative methods discussed are also transferrable to other subjects.
