Samenvatting:

Introducing students to the rationale behind qualitative research methods and providing guidance on how to carry out basic qualitative research, this text describes and illustrates six different approaches to qualitative research in psychology: grounded theory, interpretative phenomenology, case studies, discursive psychology, Foucauldian discourse analysis, and memory work. Each chapter introduces an approach along with its procedures and techniques for gathering and analyzing data, and explains each approach's advantages and disadvantages. Appendices provide three examples of work done by undergraduates. Distributed by Taylor & Francis. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
