Grounded in the author's 30 years of experience as a highly esteemed nurse researcher, the book guides nurses step by step through all aspects of program development. It underscores the importance of doing research that is knowledge driven and not limited to a particular method, and describes the characteristics of a successful research program and how to achieve it. It stresses the need for both qualitative and quantitative research methods to develop a valuable program of research. With a major focus on planning for sequential studies and describing potential pathways of a research trajectory, the book addresses options and timing of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method research designs, along with time-management strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNumerous examples of various types of nursing research programs provide insight into potential research paths, and information from the author's own long-term research on postpartum mood and anxiety disorders is used to illustrate concepts throughout the book. The text also includes suggestions for sustaining a research trajectory and provides detailed strategies for publishing successive studies. With an eye to exploring every possible research avenue, the book addresses interdisciplinary collaborative research and international research collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides specific steps for developing a successful research program in nursing and the health sciences\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDemonstrates how to use both quantitative and qualitative research methods to produce a knowledge-driven research trajectory\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides time-management strategies for research productivity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplains how to plan for sequential studies and sustain a successful research trajectory\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUses concrete examples of research programs, including the author's own programs on postpartum mood and anxiety disorders\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeck, Cheryl:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCheryl Tatano Beck, DNSc, CNM, FAAN, \u003c\/b\u003e is a distinguished professor at the University of Connecticut School of Nursing.
