Open textbook: an introduction to design a communication research study. Vol 2. N.2

Abstract

The aim of this book, and of the teaching project it is a result of, is to explore the possibilites of which is known as a living handbook, or an interactive, ongoing handbook accessible online to be edited by authors and for consult fot the scholarly community. It is also our goal to explore the ways of obtaining an open textbook out of some advanced versions of the living handbook- a more static output from a more dynamic one. We continue this way the production of materials to be used in the teaching of master programs on communication research, an effort initiated by producing a first output called Methodos. Anuadio de Métodos de Investigación en Comunicación Social [Methodos. Yearbook on Research Methods in Social Communication], intended as a product of our concern on how to teach such courses. This volume is an Open Textbook, in pdf format, which offers the initial contents to be provided as well in the living handbook online. In this second volume, corresponding to 2021, we include some other advanced texts on methodology.
