Integrating Qualitative and Quantitative Methods
A Pragmatic Approach
A practical guide to designing mixed methods research in social science research courses; it goes beyond “how-to” and shows “why-to use”
An absolutely timely text in the growing field of practice based research which is invaluable for mature professionals as well as more standard postgraduate students.
Whereas many books focus solely on qualitative or quantitative research, this book is very useful for those who want to combine both types of research. It not only clearly discusses the strengths of combining specific methods, but pays also attention to the steps to be taken in the research process.
This is a text that will offer a great alternative to students studying at doctoral level. The practical examples offered add to the clarity of this book which deals cmprehensively with issues of mixed methods research.
A good, clear book that for those students who are considering mixed research methods we recommend as reading.
Again, I have not had the time to digest this, but superficially it looks good.
This is a very interesting book, which will be useful reading for the small amount of MSc dissertation students who engage in mixed methods research, such as a mixed methods case study strategy.
a must book for postgraduate taught and research students
I have sent my feedback some time ago
This is a book I have been waiting for! Most literature covers either qualitative OR quantitative research, even though in reality they go hand in hand. I particularly like the section on the 4 options how the two approaches can be linked. I will use it in guiding my master students and have recommended the book to the library, Ph.D. students at my institute as well as colleagues.
The book discusses different aspects of using quantitative and qualitative methods in researches. I would recommend it for those who want to use mixed methods in their researches, especially PHD students and researchers
