Product Description
IAPSM's Textbook of Comprehensive Research Methodology, 2/E is a structured, ground-up guide to medical research, built by the Indian Association of Preventive and Social Medicine (IAPSM) for learners at every stage—from a first-time researcher framing a question to an experienced scholar refining methodology. The second edition expands on the first with updated perspectives, deeper methodological discussion, and genuinely new domains of relevance to contemporary health research. Organized across four sections and 60 chapters, the book progresses from the basics of research (title and abstract writing, formulating a research question, SMART objectives, literature review, protocol and manuscript writing) through the statistical rigor of quantitative study designs, the contextual depth of qualitative research (focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, thematic analysis), and into operational research within real health systems. Two chapters new to this edition—Artificial Intelligence in Quantitative Research and Artificial Intelligence in Qualitative Research—bring the text current with how AI tools are entering the research workflow. Who This Book Is For: Postgraduate Medical Students: a core text for thesis and dissertation work across specialties, especially Community Medicine/PSM. Medical Research Workers: a comprehensive methods reference spanning quantitative, qualitative and operational research. Public Health Professionals: practical grounding in the research that shapes health policy and programs. PG Teaching Faculty: a ready teaching resource for research-methodology modules and thesis guidance. Policy Makers and Researchers: a foundation in the evidence-generation methods behind health policy decisions. Why This Book Helps: Takes you from question to publication: covers the full arc from formulating a hypothesis to protocol writing, data analysis, and manuscript submission. Balances all major research traditions: quantitative, qualitative and operational research are each given full sections rather than an afterthought. Demystifies statistics: dedicated chapters on basic and advanced statistics, sample size estimation, and tests of significance build confidence with data. Keeps pace with modern research practice: new AI-in-research chapters address a genuinely emerging part of the research workflow. Supports real-world application: chapters on health-systems building blocks and operational research connect methodology to program-level decision-making. Key Features: 60 chapters across 4 sections: Basics, Quantitative Research, Qualitative Research, and Operational Research. Two dedicated chapters on Artificial Intelligence in Research, new to the 2nd edition. Complete coverage of study designs: descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional, case-control, cohort, and experimental. Practical chapters on protocol writing, manuscript writing, and referencing/discussion for thesis-ready output. 446 pages contributed by a nationwide faculty of Community Medicine/PSM educators under IAPSM.
