I can personally strongly recommend this book as it will save your bacon when you start year 1 and then in year 2 and year 3!!
Research and research methods is one of the constants in midwifery learning and you need to know the basics, need to understand the lingo and be able to sort your null hypotheses from your complex hypotheses and your phenomenology from your ethnography! The chapter on Literature Reviews and Ethics in Research are both must reads. Infact, the whole book is!
I only brought one research methods book when I was a student and it was this one
Colin has very kindly answered your questions in this thread - read on!
Thanks to Colin for connecting with our members and also BIG thanks for helping us all with our research modules over the years!!
