“Short. Comprehensive. Easy to understand. What’s not to like? If you need to know how to do a lab report you don’t want to waste time wandering in a wilderness of vague platitudes. This little book will tell you everything you need to know. Highly recommended.”-- Prof Steven Hayes, Nevada Foundation Professor, Behavior Analysis, Department of Psychology at the University of Nevada“Written by two lab-report experts, this e-book is packed full of practical tips, suggestions and ideas. Read it to learn the science and art of writing successful lab reports. This is exactly the kind of guide I wish I’d had when doing my university studies!”-- Dr Joe Oliver, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Contextual & Consulting at University College London“… It is a timely book that meets the needs of the modern psychology student and it will be core reading for my experimental psychology modules.”-- Dr Ian Tyndall, Senior Lecturer, Department of Psychology, University of Chichester“The authors of this extremely useful guide have done an excellent job of making a potentially dry and technical subject very accessible. In a friendly and entertaining style, this book guides the reader through every step of the preparation of a lab report, providing very helpful and pragmatic advice throughout. Whilst I found myself wishing I had had access to something like this back when I was an undergraduate, I can also see myself picking it up the next time I write a paper for publication in a journal.”-- Dr Richard Bennett, Clinical Psychologist and Lecturer at the Centre for Applied Psychology, School of Psychology, University of BirminghamTo read all the reviews, see https://labreport.org/reviews/About the Authors
