Data Analysis and Research for Sport and Exercise Science

Quantitative research methods and data analysis are key components of sport, exercise, and health science degree studies. This accessible new textbook introduces the three main areas that a student needs to understand in order to successfully undertake independent quantitative research: project planning and design; data analysis and use of statistics; and interpretation and reporting of findings. Sports and exercise science specific examples are used to illustrate the methodology throughout.
