Step by Step: An Introduction to Conducting Research in Criminology and Criminal Justice is a collection of readings, materials, and application exercises designed to assist readers with understanding the value, importance, and process of conducting research within criminology and criminal justice. Exercises presented throughout the text guide students through the step-by-step process of developing a comprehensive research proposal or research study that aligns with their professional interests.

The opening chapter introduces readers to the value and potential applications of research findings within criminology, criminal justice, and related fields, and summarizes different types of research which may be employed within these disciplines. Additional chapters address ethical considerations, the steps involved in the research process, the value of research partnerships with community organizations, and conducting a literature review. Students learn about research design and measurement, methods for primary and secondary data collection, and data analysis. The closing chapter focuses on writing and formatting the final research proposal or report.
