Product Description
This long awaited successor of the original Cook/Campbell Quasi-Experimentation: Design and Analysis Issues for Field Settings represents updates in the field over the last two decades. The book covers four major topics in field experimentation: - Theoretical matters: Experimentation, causation, and validity
- Quasi-experimental design: Regression discontinuity designs, interrupted time series designs, quasi-experimental designs that use both pretests and control groups, and other designs
- Randomized experiments: Logic and design issues, and practical problems involving ethics, recruitment, assignment, treatment implementation, and attrition
- Generalized causal inference: A grounded theory of generalized causal inference, along with methods for implementing that theory in single and multiple studies

This book is comprehensive and incredibly useful. Anyone who is interested in designing or interpreting an experiment or a quasi-experiment in the social and behavioral sciences would benefit greatly by reading it.

I am a doctoral student in public health and recommend this book to my fellow doctoral students out there. It is a thorough and comprehensive text on research methods. I have gone through quite a few texts with similar titles and this stands out as the best.

This is a great book for those who are willing to discover or improve their knowledge about experimental and quasi-experimental designs - it is an essential book, I'd say. It also helps a lot to understand research and science in general. Really helped me in my dissertation.
Experimental and Quasi Experimental Designs September 21, 2007

The book arrived in good shape and withing promised time. However when I order books from other sellers they are shipped rightaway and if they have not been shipped it is easy to cancel the order. With Amazon when I tried to cancel the order it said that the order has been processed but it was shipped a week after that. I guess that is the price one has to pay for free shipping.
a useful book for educational researchers September 12, 2005

I had read this book in the Univerisity's library and I found that it would help in setting up an evaluational study of educational interventions. I found that it would be a reference book for an educational researcher, hence I bought it.
