Advanced Methods in Family Therapy Research

Reviews / Votes

"Advanced Methods in Family Therapy Research Briefly comprehensively and succinctly charts the territory of research methods for assessing couple and family therapy. Richard Miller and Lee Johnson have assembled a superb set of authors who illuminate every aspect of research ranging from basic concepts, such as how to develop research ideas and conduct analyses, to more specialized topics such as cultural adaption research and specific technologies. This book should be an essential great resource for graduate courses in family research and a part of every family researcher's library." -- Jay Lebow, Ph.D., Clinical Professor of Psychology, The Family Institute at Northwestern and Northwestern University

"Drs. Miller and Johnson have produced a book on the state of the research art in marriage and family therapy. They rightly address the interdependence of family members and the validity of research methods and measurement. The book's chapters address a broad swath of content and methodological issues in MFT research. Where will the MFT field be if we do not embrace the challenge of conducting rigorous research on our cherished interventions that many of us, myself included, believe are beneficial to our patients? Miller and Johnson's book should be adopted in MFT programs and inspire junior faculty in their research and guide the next generation of graduate students to take up the cause." -- Cleveland G. Shields, Associate Professor of Marriage and Family Therapy, Purdue University, Indiana, USA

"This book should be required reading for all family therapy graduate students and faculty members interested in cutting edge systemic research methods.... Each chapter, written by preeminent scholars, moves the field forward in a profound way; we have needed this book for some time and I'm delighted that Miller and Johnson have decided to take on the responsibility for making this material accessible for family scholars." -- Sandra M.
