Visualizing Social Science Research: Maps, Methods, & Meaning

By Johannes P. Wheeldon, Mauri K. (Kalervo) Ahlberg, Mauri K. Ahlberg

This introductory text presents basic principles of social science research through maps, graphs, and diagrams. The authors show how concept maps and mind maps can be used in quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research, using student-friendly examples and classroom-based activities. Integrating theory and practice, chapters show how to use these tools to plan research projects, "see" analysis strategies, and assist in the development and writing of research reports.
