Overview
"Drs. Arnold, Gansneder, and Perrin pull back the curtain to expose the research process for what it is: predictable, flexible, and masterable."-Chad Starkey, PhD, ATC, from the Foreword The NATA Education Competencies require that students be able to "demonstrate the ability to prepare and interpret sample design for scientific research." This innovative text provides a precise roadmap for AT students conducting research projects from conceptualizing a topic to submitting a paper for publication.Synopsis
Arnold (Virginia Commonwealth University) introduces athletic training students to the process of conducting research. Useful for undergraduates as well as master's and doctoral students, the text guides students through the process of understanding research methods and then formulating and writing a thesis or dissertation. Each chapter introduces theoretical concepts, shows how they can be applied to athletic training, and follows up with a discussion of research and clinical implications. In addition to research problems and activities, SPSS screen captures and printouts are included. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
