Rate this book
In the fully updated Fourth Edition of their best-selling guide, Surviving Your Dissertation , Kjell Erik Rudestam and Rae R. Newton answer questions concerning every stage of the dissertation process, including selecting a suitable topic, conducting a literature review, developing a research question, understanding the role of theory, selecting an appropriate methodology and research design, analyzing data, and interpreting and presenting results. In addition, this must-have guide covers topics that other dissertation guides often miss, such as the many types of quantitative and qualitative research models available, the principles of good scholarly writing, how to work with committees, how to meet IRB and ethical standards, and how to overcome task and emotional blocks. With plenty of current examples, the new edition features an expanded discussion of online research, data collection and analysis, and the use of data archives, as well as expanded coverage of qualitative methods and added information on mixed methods.

Yine konuyla ilgili gayet faydalı bir kitap daha...Farklı şekilde düşünmeye iten, belki bunu yaparken soru sorma/düşünme eylemini biraz da sistematikleştiren bir kitap. Kafamı biraz karıştırdığı doğru:), özellikle benim için biraz daha önemli olan belli başlı bazı konularda çok daha ayrıntılı düşünmeye itti beni, yorulduğumu söyleyebilirim bu nedenle ama bunun faydalı da olduğunu düşünüyorum aynı zamanda. Her bilgi farklı bir yol açabiliyor neticede zamanla. O açıdan benim için oldukça değerli bir deneyim oldu.
