Developing Qualitative Descriptions
About this book
Developing Qualitative Descriptions presents a straightforward approach for producing academically rigorous descriptions using qualitative data.
This book, the first focused solely on qualitative description, is accessible to readers with no prior background in qualitative research. It provides sufficient guidance for you to complete an entire research project. What do nurses see as the barriers to improving care? What process do customers go through to buy a product? What are parents' views of a new educational policy? These are the types of important research questions this book will help you answer.
This volume is useful for students, trainees, and researchers starting with qualitative research or for researchers in applied disciplines, like business, education, nursing, and medicine. It is an appropriate text for an introduction to research methods, undergraduate- or graduate-level qualitative methods courses, or thesis projects that use qualitative description.
