Suter, Oklahoma State University; Gilbert A. Churchill, University of Wisconsin BASIC MARKETING RESEARCH is the best-selling introductory marketing research text because it is accessible to students while maintaining its level of coverage. BASIC MARKETING RESEARCH provides a framework for the choices and decisions that must be made by managers-an important aspect of marketing research-because decisions made in one stage of the process have consequences for other stages. Managers and marketing researchers need to appreciate the interactions among the parts of the research process so they can have confidence in a particular research result. This edition provides readers with an overview of the information gathering function from the perspective of the researchers who gather the information and the marketing managers who use it. NEW TO THIS EDITION • In this eighth edition of BASIC MARKETING RESEARCH, co-authors Tracy Suter and Tom Brown continue to revise and update existing examples, exhibits, and figures, while also adding many new ones. • This edition features examples to open each of the five sections of the book. These short examples, drawn from the business world, are designed to www.cengageasia.com 29 engage students’ interest in the materials presented in the chapters of a particular section. For instance, the example for the fifth section, which deals with reporting the results of a research project, shows the political leanings of U.S.-based fans of 19 of the world’s top 20 brands based on an analysis of Facebook activity using Wisdom, a big data analytic tool. • The supplemental materials available to instructors have been completely retooled, from teaching tips to test bank questions to classroom-ready presentation slides. Our goal is to make the learning experience for students-and the teaching experience for instructorsas complete, efficient, and effective as possible. Instructors can completely customize the classroom presentation by including (or excluding) material from the presentation slides we provide or by using the presentation template and adding their own material. FEATURES • Part Openers. Each part of the book is introduced by an opening example from the business world related to marketing research. The goal is to present a real example that can stimulate reader interest and attention; the part openers usually relate directly to the material presented in the chapters within that part. Examples include how Sony and Nielsen teamed up to assess the most memorable TV events (Part 1); how data visualization tools can be used with mountains of college football recruiting data to enhance understanding (Part 2); and how pictograms can be used to present the political leanings of the top-20 brands (Part 5). • Manager’s Focus. These short features provide insights into how the information in that particular chapter is relevant to marketing managers. The goal is to emphasize the role of marketing managers in the research process and to offer guidelines for achieving the most usable results. Jon Austin, who teaches marketing research at Cedarville University and has a strong background working with clients in industry, provided the inspiration—and most of the writing—for the “Manager’s Focus” entries. • The manager’s focus discussions highlight one of the key distinctions of this book —we favor managerial usefulness and understanding over deep technical sophistication. It’s not that we don’t appreciate the “nuts and bolts” of topics such as big data integration and analysis, sampling, and sophisticated statistical analysis. We just believe that in a beginning course – covering everything from exploratory research to big data analytics to behavioral customer insights to primary data collection to statistical analysis – it’s a lot more important to communicate the basic uses of marketing research, key decisions along the way, when and why to apply certain analysis techniques, and how to interpret the results of an analysis. Deeper knowledge about most of the topics in the book is readily available in advanced courses and textbooks. • Research Windows. The Research Windows provide a view of what is happening in the world of marketing research, describe what is happening at specific companies, and offer some specific how-to tips. They serve to engage the readers’ interest in the chapter topic and to provide further depth of information. Some examples include “Marketing Research Company Job Titles and Compensation” (Chapter 1); “Online Focus Groups for Better Oral Hygiene” (Chapter 4); “Data, Data Everywhere: Target, Big Data, and You” (Chapter 6); and “’Driving’ Towards Golfer Insights at PING” (Chapter 10).

These examples are referred to throughout most of the chapters, providing readers with a running example. • International Coverage: Expanded international examples increase awareness of research issues beyond North America, exposing domestic students to global dynamics. Cultural and language barriers often present challenges for the researcher, and many readers may work outside the United States or Canada--making these illustrations very relevant to future business leaders. • New Case Material: Almost all chapters include at least one new end-of-chapter case as well as several new end-of-book cases. These cases present interesting, real-life research situations that require students to make thoughtful decisions. They offer the opportunity for active participation in the decisionmaking process, one of the most effective forms of learning. Many of these cases focus on Internet issues or ethical issues associated with marketing research. Data sets for Excel and SPSS are included for select cases on the text web site. www.cengageasia.com 31 • Step-by-Step Guides: Emphasizing managerial applications more than statistical theory, the text equips students with basic tools to perform common data analysis. More sophisticated data analysis approaches are left for further reference. Readers learn how to test simple hypotheses involving differences between means or relationships among variables. Coverage of cross-tabulation, t-tests, ANOVA, and regression teaches students these techniques. Easy-to-follow boxes illustrate how to use software to analyze data and draw conclusions.

Babin, Louisiana Tech University EXPLORING MARKETING RESEARCH, INTERNATIONAL EDITION deals with the design, collection, analysis, and reporting of marketing research data relevant to a firm’s current and future needs. The text focuses on students as managers, not practitioners, of marketing research. Students learn about traditional types of marketing research, such as designing questionnaires, as well as the latest technological developments that facilitate marketing research including data collection devices, data analysis tools, and practical approaches to data analysis. In addition, this edition places more emphasis on ethical and international issues relating to marketing research. NEW TO THIS EDITION • The Internet is revolutionizing information systems, ways of gathering secondary data, survey processes, sampling, questionnaire design, qualitative analysis, and communication of results. Practically every chapter includes significant coverage of Internetrelated topics, and most chapters also include review questions and activities that get students involved with the Internet in a relevant way. The “Survey This!” feature gets students and instructors directly involved with one important way that the Internet has changed research. This particular feature provides first-hand experience with the advantages and disadvantages of using online questionnaires. Additionally, students can then analyze data that they actually helped to provide. In addition to greater currency and attention given to the Internet, other key features added to the tenth edition include: www.cengageasia.com 32 • Survey This! Feature - Students respond to an online questionnaire using Qualtrics software. The questionnaire involves students’ opinions, activities, and interests regarding numerous everyday behaviors ranging from study habits to involvement with social networking. The resulting data are made available to instructors and students. In the early chapters, this feature is useful for critiquing the way questionnaires are constructed and how research hypotheses are addressed in a questionnaire. In later chapters, students can use the data to respond to real research questions about other students. Students also get access to Qualtrics to design their own questionnaires. • Tips of the Trade - Each chapter contains a useful list of important tips that correspond to the particular stage of the research process. The Tips provide information addressing practical questions such as interview length, question wording, interviewer involvement, sample size requirements, and guides for data reliability and validity as well as useful tips for testing hypotheses using inferential statistics. • New Chapter Vignettes--Each chapter opens with a story relevant to the material featured in that particular chapter. Some of these vignettes involve famous brands and companies, so the reader may well be familiar with some of the topics. Other vignettes involve “slice of life” stories describing a businessperson’s struggle to make smart decisions and demonstrate how research is intertwined with this struggle. The ninth edition included all new vignettes and the tenth edition includes about a third new vignettes with updates to the others. • A Simplified Approach and Style--The boxed material, chapter objectives, and end-of-chapter materials are now presented in a simplified form that allows greater focus on the truly important information. Boxed materials highlight Research Snapshots that cover ethical angles of research, provide illustrations of research in practice, and offer relevant tips or detailed examples. The chapter learning objectives ensure an important coherence and structure to the chapters that culminate with the end-of-chapter materials. This deliberate approach has been taken to emphasize significant content material and issues, which will reinforce positive student learning outcomes. Moreover, this simplified approach continues into the analytical chapters, which now deemphasize statistical theory and detail and focus more on practical statistical application. • Increased Coverage on International Business Issues-The examples and illustrations make much greater use of international business. Readers of this book may end up working outside the United States or Canada, so the increased international examples will increase awareness of research issues beyond North America and open up domestic students to global dynamics. This is a particularly important addition to the text since cultural and language barriers often present challenges for the researcher. • Greater Attention to Qualitative Research--More and more companies are benefitting from qualitative research. In response to this important phenomenon, Chapter 6 was rewritten previously in the ninth edition to focus more exclusively on qualitative research. Phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography, and case study approaches are now all covered. Several other chapters now emphasize qualitative research to a greater extent. For example, the Internet is not just a way of collecting quantitative data. Qualitative research is being dramatically changed by the Internet as consumers leave more and more artifactual data behind on social networking web sites, company chat rooms, blogs, twitters, and more.

Students require familiarity with specific mathematical concepts and formulas in order to perform basic tasks. This is a topic that is being taken very seriously in the discipline. Many companies routinely collect massive amounts of customer data, which requires marketing modelers to translate that data into information that may be used to make factbased strategic and tactical decisions. Marketers are being challenged to illustrate and demonstrate the financial return and measurement of their actions and marketing dashboards and metrics are becoming more important. This book was itself designed in part from a customer perspective, and each chapter also covers a marketing topic using the optimal methods.
