ABSTRACT

I really enjoy completing research, and find that working from a study idea through to a finished report, paper or intervention can be an amazing experience. One of the reviewers of this book pointed out that there is a tremendous amount of joy and pleasure to be gained from learning new skills, making research discoveries, solving tricky problems, or getting a significant result. And they are right. Research is a journey-one that can sometimes be tiring, but is equally likely to be exciting. It’s the aim of this book to share that journey of research with you, to give you skills to get the most from your studies, and the opportunity to make your research story as positive as possible.
