Designing and Conducting Research in Health and Human Performance
Book Review
Abstract
In the first edition of Designing and Conducting Research in Health and Human Performance authors Matthews and Kostelis have created a useful and practical text for the undergraduate student in the fields of health and human performance. By using relevant and practical examples and by including each aspect of the research process from identifying the problem to presenting the research, Matthews and Kostelis keep student learning at the forefront of the book. Although difficult to highlight many errors with, or omissions in, the text a few minor technicalities arise. However, the authors have placed emphasis where it should be placed and in the end the reader of this text can more fully engage in the undergraduate research process.
