Acknowledgments

This book would certainly not exist without the support of several organizations and individuals. California State University, Fresno has provided me the space and time to conduct research, to teach about conducting research, and now to write about conducting research. My colleagues in the Department of Psychology have been generous with their advice and encouragement. Karl Oswald, in particular, has been a valued source of ideas related to teaching—especially the teaching of research methods—for many years now. At Unnamed Publisher, Michael Boezi provided the original impetus for this project, and Jenn Yee and Melissa Yu kept it moving forward.

The following external reviewers provided numerous comments and suggestions that improved the book tremendously.
