Thinking Qualitatively: Methods of Mind boldly pursues the
challenge to teach researchers not just how to collect and analyze
data but how to actively think about them. Nine modules of mental
processing for the qualitative researcher are profiled: thinking
analytically, realistically, symbolically, ethically,
multidisciplinarily, artistically, summarily, interpretively, and
narratively. The book also explores how qualitative research
designs, data collection, data analyses, and write-ups can be
enriched through over sixty different lenses, filters, and angles
on social life.
Thinking Qualitatively first explains the often used but
sometimes misused terms for inquiry, followed by a review of
traditional analytic basics. The book then ventures into more
evocative and multidimensional ways to examine the complex patterns
of daily living. Research genres such as grounded theory,
phenomenology, ethnography, case study, narrative inquiry, mixed
methods, and arts based research in education, the social sciences,
and health care are addressed. Recent research is also cited on how
the brain works and how cognitive methods harmonize with the goals
of qualitative inquiry.
Written in Saldana's elegant and accessible style, Thinking
Qualitatively reveals how the researcher's mind thinks
heuristically to transcend the descriptive and develop "highdeep"
insights about the human condition.
