Principles of Marketing Research introduces students to state-of-the-art developments in all phases of the research enterprise. It addresses issues in design, implementation, analysis and interpretation. Topics covered include the principles of questionnaire design and development, mail and telephone surveying, qualitative research methods, regression analysis, the design and analysis of experimental data, factor analysis, and an introduction to structural equation models, and much more. This text draws together a team of internationally recognized scholars and pairs them with marketing practitioners to give a cutting-edge but practical overview of contemporary marketing research. Each chapter begins with a historical development of the subject under scrutiny, moves to more advanced issues and coverage of latest developments, and introduces examples throughout. Chapters include questions or exercises designed to test and extend the reader's knowledge and provide hands-on experience. Because it explores the foundations of research as well as latest developments, graduate and postgraduate students will find it the most thoroughly authoritative introduction to the field. Seasoned researchers will find this an essential update of their knowledge of classical procedures.
