| Summary, etc | This book is intended to provide a compelling rationale for the value of experimental research methods in the domains of social work, practice, policy, education, program evaluation and pilot studies, across a wide range of client populations, and involving problems related to mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence, child and neglect, gerontology, health care, physical health, intellectual disabilities, and so on. The core of the book will present a series of true experimental research designs, beginning with very simple ones, and progressing to the more complex. Each such design will be diagrammed and its inferential logic will be described, in theory, along with hypothetical examples of how this particular design could be used and actual published examples of its use. These are followed by content on design refinements which have emerged in the literature in recent years: preregistering clinical trials, the use of data depositories, the value of design diagrams, intent-to-treat analyses, the use of web-based platforms to conduct experiments, and so on. |
