Description: Five Ways of Doing Qualitative Analysis by Frederick J. Wertz, Kathy Charmaz, Linda M. McMullen, Rosemarie Anderson, Emalinda McSpadden This unique text provides a broad introduction to qualitative analysis together with concrete demonstrations and comparisons of five major approaches. Leading scholars apply their respective analytic lenses to a narrative account and interview featuring "Teresa," a young opera singer who experienced a career-changing illness. The resulting analyses vividly exemplify what each approach looks like in action. The researchers then probe the similarities and differences among their approaches; their distinctive purposes and strengths; the role, style, and subjectivity of the individual researcher; and the scientific and ethical complexities of conducting qualitative research. Also included are the research participant's responses to each analysis of her experience. A narrative account from another research participant, "Gail," can be used by readers to practice the kinds of analysis explored in the book.

Ethics, Participant Involvement, and Analytic Methodology Appendix: Gails Texts Review "This text addresses one of the most frequently asked questions in qualitative analysis: what is the difference between phenomenology, grounded theory, discourse analysis, narrative research, and intuitive inquiry? Not only do the authors explain the theory that underlies each approach, but they also illustrate its application and the resultant findings, making the book a worthy text for a qualitative methods course. As an added bonus, the authors present the participants reaction to the results of the five different analyses and discuss the ethical implications in terms of letting the participant speak for herself, issues of confidentiality, and tensions around interpretation of data. I would definitely use this book in my advanced qualitative research course." - Donna M. Mertens, Department of Educational Foundations and Research, Gallaudet University, USA "A powerful, richly nuanced, brilliantly innovative pedagogical intervention into the field of qualitative inquiry. This book is clearly written, grounded in case materials, and very accessible to students. The narrative is driven by the voices and insights of preeminent scholars, each an expert in one of five ways of doing qualitative analysis. This book represents the most innovative approach to date for teaching qualitative analysis. It will provide a starting place for the next generation of students who want to learn how to be well-grounded qualitative inquirers." - Norman K.

Review Quote "What was most illuminating was how each researcher offers reflective comments on one anothers analysis of the data. These collegial meta-commentaries are perhaps the most unique and noteworthy feature of the entire project. These transparent assessments of one anothers analysis offer the reader not just a comparison of five diverse modes of qualitative research but penetrating insights into the essence of qualitative research and the very meaning of qualitative psychology. There is no other text like this....Throughout the text we see Wertz, like a good committee chair, weaving between all five approaches, and sewing together a consensus....For advanced graduate students or seasoned professionals this material is an indispensable resource, especially for those who are seeking a qualitative method most appropriate to their research goals. There is no better book for understanding and promoting qualitative research as a general field of psychological inquiry....Serves as a virtual Rosetta stone that can bring together an unwieldly field perpetually under risk of fragmentation into a generative and disciplined research community....The style of mutual respect and careful engagement we witness in this collaborative project is itself exemplary of the attitude of scientific openness and collegiality that, more than anything will eventually transform psychology into the liberatory science it was always meant to be."-- Journal of Phenomenological Psychology Details ISBN1609181425 Author Emalinda McSpadden Publisher Guilford Publications Year 2011 ISBN-10 1609181425 ISBN-13 9781609181420 Format Paperback Imprint Guilford Publications Subtitle Phenomenological Psychology, Grounded Theory, Discourse Analysis, Narrative Research, and Intuitive Inquiry Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States Birth 1939 DEWEY 150.723 Media Book Pages 434 Short Title 5 WAYS OF DOING QUALITATIVE AN Language English UK Release Date 2011-05-13 Publication Date 2011-05-13 NZ Release Date 2011-05-13 US Release Date 2011-05-13 Alternative 9781609181437 Audience Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly AU Release Date 2011-05-12 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
