Ok so admittedly learning about research and all the intricacies of how to complete valid studies and have them apply to bigger populations is not my forte. I am so confused and uninterested in this class and this book. But alas, I must read it for 3 more weeks to complete the class... sigh!
Addendum... Ok and I finished the class, still know very little about it (although admittedly a bit more) and still do not enjoy or even tolerate this book. Blah!

Better than I would have thought. Also, it's completely awesome that I have access to all the research databases these days.
