A research-design perspective on measurement error

Madhu Viswanathan’s book examines measurement error through its sources and effects on responses, linking the topic to practical choices in research design. Its stated scope includes both the design of measures and the design of research methods, offering a complement to treatments centered chiefly on statistics or measurement theory. The publisher description also notes accompanying datasets and suggestions for using the book in courses, connecting its discussion to research practice and teaching.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Researchers working on the design of measures or research methods
  • Students and instructors studying research design or measurement
  • Readers seeking a treatment of measurement error beyond a primarily statistical or theoretical approach

Book overview

Most books on measurement present a statistical orientation or an orientation toward measurement theory. Although these approaches are valuable, Measurement Error and Research Design is motivated by the lack of literature that enhances understanding of measurement error, its sources, and its effects on responses. This book's purpose is to enhance the design of research, both of measures and of methods. An author maintained website, http: //www.business.uiuc.edu/ madhuv/msmt.html features datasets and suggestions for using the book in courses.
