    In this handbook, internationally renowned scholars outline the current state-of-the-art of quantitative
    and qualitative market research. They discuss focal approaches to market research and guide students and practitioners in their
    real-life applications. Aspects covered include topics on data-related issues, methods, and applications. Data-related topics comprise
    chapters on experimental design, survey research methods, international market research, panel data fusion, and endogeneity.
    Method-oriented chapters look at a wide variety of data analysis methods relevant for market research, including chapters on
    regression, structural equation modeling (SEM), conjoint analysis, and text analysis. Application chapters focus on specific topics relevant
    for market research such as customer satisfaction, customer retention modeling, return on marketing, and return on price promotions. Each
    chapter is written by an expert in the field. The presentation of the material seeks to improve the intuitive and technical understanding of
    the methods covered.

    What is special about this book?
    – Many chapters provide data and software code to replicate the
    analyses, but still offer an intuitive and practice-oriented approach
    to the discussed methodologies
