Quantitative Methodologies using Multi-Methods (eBook, PDF)

Models for Social Science and Information Technology Research

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Written for researchers engaged in quantitative non-parametric investigations, particularly in the area of Information and Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D), the book discusses multi-method methodologies based on the building-block design. Application of the methodologies is illustrated by research into ICT4D in Sub-Saharan Africa.
