Research Methods in Linguistics guides the reader through the key issues, principles, and contributions of core methods in linguistic research. It is an essential resource for researchers and graduate students looking for clear introductions to key concepts, accessible discussions of theory and practice through illustrative examples and critical engagement with current debates.

Topics covered include developing research questions; combining methods; quantitative research designs (including questionnaires, chi-square tests and t-tests); corpus analysis; and qualitative research methods (interview methods, discourse analytic approaches and multimodal analysis).

Expanded throughout, this third edition also includes:
· New chapters on linguistic ethnography and digital discourse analysis
· New guided activities and updated further readings, online resources and discussion questions
· Refreshed examples, engaging with recent sources and materials
· A glossary of key terms for each chapter
· Learning outcomes for each chapter.

Leading you towards the research methods and principles most appropriate to your work, and explaining them in detail, this is the ideal book for anyone working with linguistic data.
