Full Description
Advanced Methods in Family Therapy Research provides an accessible, understandable primer to advanced clinical research methods and statistics, all with the purpose of advancing therapy effectiveness and improving client care.
This fully revised new edition is designed to help readers produce, consume, and understand research, keeping up to date with the latest developments in the field. Accessibly written with marriage and family therapists and researchers in mind, updates address the changes in the research landscape of family therapy research, including new research designs, methods, and statistical techniques that are now considered best practice. Contributing authors share their wisdom on a wide variety of topics including randomized controlled trials, qualitative research, cultural adaptation research, and mixed methods research, with new chapters on meta-analysis, multilevel modelling, benchmarking, growth mixture modelling, Bayesian statistics, and more. New information on how to consume as well as produce research is featured, helping readers become informed consumers of journal articles and studies, produce quality, publishable research, and write fundable grant proposals.
With further readings lists and online materials for classes, this textbook is essential reading for graduate students in MFT training, as well as MFT and clinical psychology researchers. It will also be an invaluable resource for marriage and family therapists to help them keep abreast of innovations in clinical practice.
