With its hands-on didactical approach and focus on practical applications, the series adresses students, advanced researchers and teaching staff alike. It provides students and resesarchers in the social sciences, psychology, economic sciences and related disciplines insight into current practices of integrative research, as well as instructions and practical support for their own research projects.
