The Methods and Methodologies of Qualitative Family Research can
provide you with a strong conceptual framework for undertaking
qualitative research. As it explores inquiry and theory on the
cutting edge, it shows how qualitative methodologies can be applied
to family life, education, and research. Designed to demonstrate
how emerging and established methodologies can advance the
understanding of families and direct social change, this book is a
major step in assessing the development, progress, and
contributions of qualitative inquiry. Packed with useful
information and innovative approaches, this volume pulls together a
rich and diverse group of essays that teach readers about the
complexities and challenges of qualitative research. Most
importantly, you ll learn how new qualitative approaches are
grounded in systems thinking, holistic formulations, attention to
context, cultural sensitivity, and nonlinear dynamics.The Methods
and Methodologies of Qualitative Family Research is distinct from
other books of its kind because it acknowledges the agent, or self,
in compiling data and reaching conclusions. Moreover, it analyzes
how studying the world affects those doing the studying and how
those effects, in turn, play a substantial role in interpreting
data and forming conclusions. The Methods and Methodologies of
Qualitative Family Research introduces three major types of
qualitative clinical family research: conversational analysis,
recursive frame analysis, and hermeneutic phenomenology. It exposes
a wide array of resources for undertaking qualitative inquiry,
including data journals, letters, official files, clinical case
notes, folk tales, interviews, and field observations. You ll learn
how these resources are invaluable tools for understanding:
couples'decisionmaking generative fathering reflexivity the use of
historical data to construct composite cases egalitarianism and
oppression in marriage perceptions of gender, race, and class among
African-American adolescent women successful aging among
individuals who require long-term care poverty and access to
servicesA skillful blend of theory and practice, The Methods and
Methodologies of Qualitative Family Research offers conceptual
schemes, bibliographies, and other useful resources for teaching
and conducting qualitative research. It will revolutionize the way
you think about qualitative inquiry and your own approaches to
qualitative family research. In addition, you ll come away updated
on the current state of qualitative research and with new skills
and techniques for tackling your own research.
