章节摘录

　　There are， however， approaches within social research which recognize thatit is neither feasible nor ethical to attempt to impose controls on all the rele-vant factors， yet which strive to retain the logic of the experimental approach，albeit in a watered down version， beyond the bounds of the laboratory.　　Because they cannot always control all the variables， some soacl scentistsc have resorted to a ‘quasi-experimental’ approach as a realistic possibility. The quasi　experimental approach is conducted in the spirit of the classic laboratory experiment， but recognizes that the researcher cannot dictate cir-cumstances and needs to take the role of observing events ‘as they naturally occur’.Much like weather forecasters， these soaal scientists tend to rely on observing events which occur in arcumstances over which they have little or no control. Researchers in this case are on the lookout for ‘naturally occur-ring’experiments - situations in which they can see the possibility of observ-ing and measuring the impact of isolated variables through circumstances as they happen， without imposing artificial controls.　　……

•   看过之后感觉还可以不过理论部分太多，调查问卷设计的实践部分不够实用性不是很强但是理论部分还是很实在的
