In this volume, progressive experts survey recent trends in
qualitative study, which relies on small sample groups and
interview data to better represent the context and complexity of
social work practice. Chapters address different approaches to
qualitative inquiry, applications to essential areas of research
and practice, integration of qualitative and quantitative methods,
and epistemological issues.
This second edition brings even greater depth and relevance to
social work qualitative research, including new material that
tackles traditional research concerns, such as data quality,
ethics, and epistemological stances, and updated techniques in data
collection and analysis. To increase the usefulness for students
and researchers, the editors have reorganized the text to present
basic principles first and then their applications, and they have
increased their focus on ethics, values, and theory. New and
revised illustrative studies highlight more than ever the
connection between effective research and improved social
functioning among individuals and groups. The collection continues
to feature scholars and practitioners who have shaped the social
work research practice canon for more than twenty years, while also
adding the innovative work of up-and-coming talent.
