Abstract "Qualitative Research Methods: Collecting Evidence, Crafting Analysis, Communicating Impact is a comprehensive guide on both the theoretical foundations and practical application of qualitative methodology. Adopting a phronetic-iterative approach, this foundational book leads readers through the chronological progression of a qualitative research project, from designing a study and collecting and analyzing data to developing theories and effectively communicating the results--allowing readers to employ qualitative methods in their projects as they follow each chapter. Coverage of topics such as qualitative theories, ethics, sampling, interview techniques, qualitative quality, and advice on practical fieldwork provides clear and concise guidance on how to design and conduct sound research projects. Easy-to-follow instructions on iterative qualitative data analysis explain how to organize, code, interpret, make claims, and build theory. Throughout, the author offers her own backstage stories about fieldwork, analysis, drafting, writing, and publishing, revealing the emotional and humorous aspects of practicing qualitative methods. Now in its third edition, this thorough and informative text includes new cross-disciplinary focus including examples from education, criminal justice, sports and recreation, and sociology. The new edition features research authored by BIPOC and international scholars as well as an increased focus on qualitative research in business and non-academic settings. Additional features include full colour images and figures as well as a thoroughly updated instructor companion site with new test bank questions, sample syllabi, and exam preparation tips"-- Provided by publisher.
