For all three approaches, John W. Creswell and new co-author J. David Creswell include a preliminary consideration of philosophical assumptions, key elements of the research process, a review of the literature, an assessment of the use of theory in research applications, and reflections about the importance of writing and ethics in scholarly inquiry. The Fifth Edition includes more coverage of: epistemological and ontological positioning in relation to the research question and chosen methodology; case study, PAR, visual and online methods in qualitative research; qualitative and quantitative data analysis software; and in quantitative methods more on power analysis to determine sample size, and more coverage of experimental and survey designs; and updated with the latest thinking and research in mixed methods." -- Provided by publisher UR - https://books.google.co.nz/books?id=J4w5DwAAQBAJprintsec=frontcoverdq=Research+design+:+qualitative,+quantitative,+and+mixed+methods+approacheshl=ensa=Xved=0ahUKEwjzpZS2mIHaAhUJybwKHa-JDvwQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepageq=Research%20design%20%3A%20qualitative%2C%20quantitative%2C%20and%20mixed%20methods%20approachesf=false ER -
