Research ethics and integrity are growing in importance as academics face increasing pressure to win grants and publish, and universities promote themselves in the competitive HE market. This book highlights the links between research ethics and individual, social, professional, institutional, and political ethics. Drawing on Indigenous and Euro-Western research traditions, Helen Kara considers all stages of the research process, from the formulation of a research question to aftercare for participants, data and findings. She argues that knowledge of both ethical approaches is helpful for researchers working in either paradigm.

"Quantitative analysis is an increasingly essential skill for social science research, yet students in the social sciences and related areas typically receive little training in it--or if they do, they usually end up in statistics classes that offer few insights into their field. This textbook is a practical introduction to data analysis and statistics written especially for undergraduates and beginning graduate students in the social sciences and allied fields, such as economics, sociology, public policy, and data science. Quantitative Social Science engages directly with empirical analysis, showing students how to analyze data using the R programming language and to interpret the results--it encourages hands-on learning, not paper-and-pencil statistics. More than forty data sets taken directly from leading quantitative social science research illustrate how data analysis can be used to answer important questions about society and human behavior. Proven in the classroom, this one-of-a-kind textbook features numerous additional data analysis exercises and interactive R programming exercises, and also comes with supplementary teaching materials for instructors"-- Provided by publisher.

Unternehmensleitbilder zählen zum Standardrepertoire moderner Unternehmensführung. Was aber kennzeichnet ein Unternehmensleitbild? Zu wissen, was ein Leitbild zum Leitbild macht, bedeutet auch, «richtig» bzw. «normal» von «falsch» bzw. «untypisch» oder «seltsam» unterscheiden zu können. Vor diesem Hintergrund sozial verfügbaren Wissens über Leitbilder werden die Dokumente erstellt, aber auch rezipiert und verstanden. Gestützt auf die Theorie der sozialen Repräsentationen und eingebettet in eine diskursanalytische Forschungsstrategie zielt diese Analyse von 84 Leitbildtexten des deutschen Sprachraumes auf die (Re-)Konstruktion der sozial geteilten Wissensbasis. Das daraus entwickelte «typische Unternehmensleitbild» ist ein Modell, das in dieser Form empirisch nicht vorkommt und dennoch typisch für die untersuchten Texte ist.
