Data Analysis and Research for Sport and Exercise Science cover

Data Analysis and Research for Sport and Exercise Science is tailored to suit undergraduate sports and exercise science students seeking a clear understanding of data and statistics to support their scientific research.

The text is divided into three main areas: Research and Design, Data Analysis and the Interpretation of Findings. Topics covered in the book include:

* introduction to the scientific research method
* the literature review
* developing your research question and experimental design
* using statistical analysis to interpret results
* presentation of your data
* discussing your results and drawing conclusions.

Both authors have supervised many student dissertations and have an excellent understanding of the concerns and pitfalls facing those new to this field.

'Overall, this is a textbook that students will find both readable and interesting...the text is well written, and accessible to students beginning their research careers.'
'This will be a valuable resource for sport and exercise science students.' -
