Furthermore, even research reports differ, depending on whether they are write-ups of quantitative or qualitative research, and so on. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is clear, well-structured, readable, enjoyable and highly informative. Given that students have a lot to learn in the course of their studies, any book that propels them forward has to be welcomed. There are hundreds of volumes on writing, a handful of which are focused on writing in psychology. This, in my opinion, is by far the best of them.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMark Forshaw, Staffordshire University\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Written in a style that is clear, direct, and concise, \u003ci\u003eHow to Write in Psychology\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable handbook for students - a must for anyone starting a BSc Psychology course, or preparing their final year project.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDean D'Souza, BPS Student Rep\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eList of Illustrations.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Some Preliminaries.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Writing the Essay.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Preliminaries to Writing the Lab Report.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Writing the Quantitative Lab Report.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Writing the Qualitative Research Report.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Presenting Numbers, Tables and Figures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Writing the Project.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Writing for Exams and Answering MCQs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Writing for Other Purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Attention to Detail: More on APA Formatting, Especially References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Some Basics of Grammar and Common Confusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Improve Your Editing Skills.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 1: An Example Student Essay.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 2: An Example Student Quantitative Lab Report.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eReferences.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIndex\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49407890719063,"sku":"9781405156936","price":69.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781405156936.jpg?v=1730500865","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/how-to-write-in-psychology-9781405156936","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
