Abstract:

Here is a much needed introductory textbook on empirical research methods for 
the Humanities. Especially aimed at students and scholars of Literature, Applied 
Linguistics, and Film and Media, it stimulates readers to reflect on the problems 
and possibilities of testing the empirical assumptions and offers hands-on 
learning opportunities to develop empirical studies. It explains a wide range of 
methods, from interviews to observation research, and guides readers through 
the choices researchers have to make. It discusses the essence of 
experiments, illustrates how studies are designed, how to develop 
questionnaires, and helps readers to collect and analyze data by themselves. 
The book presents qualitative approaches to research but focuses mostly on 
quantitative methods, detailing the workings of basic statistics. At the end, the 
book also shows how to give papers at international conferences, how to draft a 
report, and what is involved in the preparation of a publishable article.
