520 _aThis is a scholarly double-blind peer-reviewed edited book. Quality was designed-in through the team selection and review processes. Over 40 experienced practitioner-scholars and subject matter experts were selected from accredited universities and respected organizations around the world. For example, our foreword author Dr. Joseph F. Hair Jr. is a well-known research methods textbook author. A new state-of-the-art research design typology model was developed to guide authors and readers. The authors used visual techniques - tables and diagrams - to appease all learning styles and especially English Second Language Learners. Additionally, the authors integrated and applied authentic examples into their chapters based on their experience or a published scholarly study. A visual chapter map in each chapter shows where the design theory is positioned on the research ideology continuum and which research design typology components are addressed. The closing chapter on gaps in future practices contains an interesting surprise.
