Reviews
"Saville's A Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Psychology is an invaluable resource for both younger instructors who are just starting to teach this challenging course and for more experienced instructors who are interested in fine tuning their approach to research methods. The handbook is well-written and is full of valuable ideas that are easy to incorporate into your course. I've been teaching research methods to psychology students for the past 13 years and Saville's book has truly inspired me to incorporate many of his ideas into my own course."
