This introductory research methods text explains evaluation, quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. incorporates the viewpoints of various research paradigms into its descriptions of these methods. The work covers four major paradigms: post-positivist, constructivist, transformative, and pragmatic.

In each chapter, Dr. Mertens carefully explains each step of the research process, from the literature review to analysis and reporting. Additionally, each chapter includes a published sample study and abstract to illustrate the concepts discussed in that chapter.

Each chapter now includes five paradigms: Post-positivist, Constructivist, Transformative, Pragmatic, and Indigenous.
