This textbook will be a fantastic resource for psychology students, providing the essential theoretical underpinnings of qualitative approaches alongside practical examples, tips and techniques. Subjecting the same transcript to multiple analyses provides a unique opportunity to witness qualitative research in action – to appreciate the value and unique nature of different qualitative methods.
This book provides an excellent introduction to the main approaches in qualitative research in psychology. Using the same data across all approaches makes this book unique. I highly recommend this very practical guide to graduate students and teachers alike.
This accessible and engaging practical guide to collecting and analysing qualitative data is a must have for undergraduate psychology students.
Written both for the novice and those with experience in conducting qualitative research, this is a well-written and accessible text. All aspects of the research process from question formulation through to writing up a research report are covered in detail.
The textbook is useful for those who have started to plan doing qualitative research in psychology. It gives not only guidelines on how to plan and proceed with the project, but also encourages ethical reflection.
I think I'd advise students to look to this book for the section on research questions, ethics, quality and lit reviews (this last particularly important for our students). I think the final chapter (research report) has some helpful guidance too.
I LOVE this book. It is clear and practical, with everything that an undergraduate psychology student might need to undertake their own qualitative research project. I particularly like the way that a single data set is used to explore different approaches to data analysis, and the last chapter on qualitative report writing is a very valuable addition. I wish that I had had this when I was a student.
This is a really accessible and practical guide to doing qualitative research. The addition of a set of online resources that compliment this book add an excellent practical example of how qualitative work is conducted and analysed. Any Psychology student requiring guidance in how to conduct qualitative work would be well advised to start with this book.
