I need a good references about a text book of research methodology. need some clear concept about research methodology with appropriate statistical procedure, examples in social science.
as fellow member mentioned and links provided, TISS has got good collection of books on RM otherwise visit IIPS, just a stone throw away from TISS. It is not simple just qualitative and quantitative, prioritize your research idea/problem then look for the methods suitable and so on for data collection, entry, analysis and so on tons of information available on the internet, again you identify your research question and then post for any assistance
