Full Description
Acquire the tools and strategies you need to confidently and creatively practice integration in mixed methods analysis. Encouraging you to embrace complexity and work across boundaries, this book shows you how to integrate data analytically, and work with the rich findings that result.
With new chapters and an updated structure, this second edition:
Examines the dimensions of integration, introducing a framework to use in your own research;
Enables you to ensure conversation takes place between your chosen methodological approaches so you can reap their full potential;
Presents strategies for managing dissonance and divergence in different types of data;
Considers how computational approaches like LLMs can aid analysis, while still requiring critical researcher engagement.
Pragmatic and systematic, this is an essential guide for students and researchers conducting mixed methods research.
