Book
Fast facts to loving your research project : a stress-free guide for novice researchers in nursing and healthcare / Brenda Marshall ; with special contributions from Tom Heinzen and Katherine Roberts.
"This book teaches the reader not only how to conduct a first research project, but also how to construct an argument, a theory, and critically explore a belief. This Fast Facts book has been written with the novice researcher in mind. It presents an easy guide through the steps needed to be taken when embarking on a research project. It is not a research textbook that intends to cover all aspects of the research study, nor does it teach the reader how to do statistical analysis. For many novice researchers, hiring a statistician, or using the institutional statistician will be needed. This user friendly "pocket support book" can help take the fear out of engaging in research, improve problem solving, and increase the readers interest-dare I say, love?-of research!"-- Provided by publisher.
