The Dynamics of Criminological Research

By Jennifer L. Schulenberg

The Dynamics of Criminological Research is a comprehensive, practical, and student-friendly guide to research methods in criminology. Starting with a chapter on scientific inquiry and the relevance of research methods to everyday life, moving on to integrating qualitative and quantitative approaches in every chapter, and ending with a full chapter on mixed methods, this new Canadian offering captures student interest from the beginning and keeps them engaged throughout. The presentation of concepts and techniques within relatable real-world examples, and appendices on practical topics such as report writing and secondary data sources make The Dynamics of Criminological Research a necessary tool to help students learn the skills needed to design, interpret, and critically evaluate empirical research in criminology and criminal justice.
