520 Discusses the developing scientific enterprise of
community psychology research. The book begins with a
discussion of an approach to evaluating the importance and
robustness of a research endeavor and the questions
driving that research. Part Two, Key Concepts: Approaches
to Framing the Endeavor, addresses questions about how
theories can contribute to our research and about the role
of theory in community psychology research. Part Three
moves the focus to hypothesis generation, with questions
concerning the purposes of hypotheses, how they should be
generated, and how much we should strive to bring together
multiple perspectives in generating these hypotheses. The
chapters in Part Four are organized around an extended
examination of the central and thorny methodological issue
of levels of analysis. Part Five focuses on the issues of
implementing our research, which for community
psychologists is a matter of actualizing our values in our
research design and in our method of working with the
community on research. The final major section (Part Six)
provides a series of evaluations and perspectives on the
topics discussed within the book and on the conduct and
impact of community research (PsycINFO Database Record (c)
