Research is not, nor should it be, restricted to those in academia.
This is the central premise of _Action Research and Single-Subject
Designs: Serving Counselor Accountability and Improving Practice
Decisions_. The text is centered around the idea that ethical and
effective counselors approach their practice with the mindset of a
reflective practitioner, engaging action research methodology to
collect data to guide and improve practice decisions and demonstrate
accountability and effectiveness.
Part I of the text provides the rationale for counselors becoming
reflective practitioners and engaging in research. Part II highlights
the steps and targets of action research; the collection,
organization, and analyses of data; and methods that guide valid and
trustworthy interpretation of research findings. The chapters in Part
III review specific research designs that are user friendly and
applicable for those engaged in clinical counseling practice,
including case studies, interrupted time series, reversal designs, and
multiple baseline designs. The final part provides a model for
engaging in action research and the opportunity to engage with the
actual process.
A critical resource for today’s practicing counselors, _Action
Research and Single-Subject Designs_ is an ideal textbook for courses
and programs in counseling research.
