Genetic Counseling Research: A Practical Guide cover

Genetic Counseling Research: A Practical Guide is the first text devoted to research methodology in genetic counseling. This text offers step-by-step guidance for conducting research, from the development of a question to the publication of findings. Genetic counseling examples, user-friendly worksheets, and practical tips guide readers through the research and publication processes. With a highly accessible, pedagogical approach, this book will help promote quality research by genetic counselors and research supervisors--and in turn, increase the knowledge base for genetic counseling practice, other aspects of genetic counseling service delivery, and professional education. It will be an invaluable resource to the next generation of genetic counseling and its surrounding disciplines.

The authors have done an excellent job with this manual of scientific methodology oriented to genetic counselors... The value of this book lies in the simplicity of its presentation and its usefulness to beginning genetic counselors who plan to embark on research and scientific writing. * Doody's Notes *
