The Handbook of Teaching Qualitative and Mixed Research Methods: A
Step-by-step Guide for Instructors presents diverse pedagogical
approaches to teaching 71 qualitative and mixed methods. These
tried-and-true methods are widely applicable to those teaching and
those being trained in qualitative and mixed methods research. The
methods for data collection cover ethics, sampling, interviewing,
recording observations of behavior, Indigenous and decolonizing
methods and methodologies as well as visual and participatory
methods. Methods for analyzing data include coding and finding
themes, exploratory and inductive analysis, linguistic analysis,
mixed methods analysis, and comparative analysis. Each method has
its own 1500-word lesson (i.e., chapter) written by expert
methodologists from around the globe. In these lessons,
contributors give the reader a brief history of the method and
describe how they teach it by including their best practices –
with succinct, step-by-step instructions – focusing on
student-centered experiential and active learning exercises. This
comprehensive, one-of a-kind text is an essential reference for
instructors who teachqualitative and/or mixed methods across the
Social and Behavioral Sciences and other related disciplines,
including Anthropology, Sociology, Education, and Health / Nursing
research.

The Handbook of Methods in Cultural Anthropology, now in its second
edition, maintains a strong benchmark for understanding the scope
of contemporary anthropological field methods. Avoiding divisive
debates over science and humanism, the contributors draw upon both
traditions to explore fieldwork in practice. The second edition
also reflects major developments of the past decade, including: the
rising prominence of mixed methods, the emergence of new
technologies, and evolving views on ethnographic writing. Spanning
the chain of research, from designing a project through methods of
data collection and interpretive analysis, the Handbook features
new chapters on ethnography of online communities, social survey
research, and network and geospatial analysis. Considered
discussion of ethics, epistemology, and the presentation of
research results to diverse audiences round out the volume. The
result is an essential guide for all scholars, professionals, and
advanced students who employ fieldwork.

Methods textbooks generally offer prescriptive advice on how to
perform certain techniques, how to develop specific strategies, how
to analyze your results. But, as all experienced ethnographers
know, this fine-sounding advice rarely provides ample guidance in
dealing with real people in real field settings. That is where this
casebook differs. Selecting many key methods regularly used by
anthropologists - participant observation, consensus analysis,
simple surveys, scaling, freelisting and triads, networks, decision
modeling- the editors commissioned scholars who have completed
studies using these techniques to describe them in the context of
real field work. Using cases from health, community politics,
family relations, and child development (among others) in settings
as diverse as an Arkansas college campus, a Mexican barrio, a Thai
village, and a Scottish business, the student is given a clear
understanding of the diversity of methods used by anthropologists
and the complexities surrounding their use.
This text provides a comprehensive guide to doing research in the
social and behavioral sciences-from research design and sampling to
collecting and analyzing data. Rich in examples, the book has been
revised and updated to provide today's students with a conceptual
understanding of each qualitative and quantitative technique, as
well as showing them how to use it. "The main strength of this text
is coverage of both quantitative and qualitative methodology from a
broad range of fields. The examples are often my students' favorite
thing to discuss in class." -Erica B. Gibson, University of South
Carolina "Bernard does an excellent job of not only showing how to
practice research but also provides a detailed discussion of
broader historical and philosophical contexts that are important
for understanding research." -Julian Kilker, University of Nevada,
Las Vegas "The depth of detailed descriptions (foundations of
social research; interviewing, participant observation, field
notes, and data analysis) go beyond other texts...the organization
is superb." -Benedict J. Colombi, University of Arizona

H. Russell Bernard's Research Methods in Anthropology, Sixth
Edition, is the standard for learning about the range of methods
for collecting and analyzing qualitative and quantitative data
about human thought and human behavior. In the first section of the
book, students learn the elements of research design, including how
to choose a research topic, how to develop research questions and
hypotheses, and how to choose an appropriate sample for their
research. In the next section, students learn the methods of data
collection, including: open-ended interviewing, questionnaire
design, participant observation, direct and indirect observation,
building scales in the field, and taking and managing field notes.
This section also introduces the methods for cultural domain
analysis and network analysis. The last section of the book covers
methods for analyzing all these kinds of data, including: finding
and analyzing themes in text, conversation and narrative analysis,
and decision modeling, as well as descriptive and inferential
statistics, multidimensional scaling. and cluster analysis. There
is no separate chapter on ethics. That topic is important in every
phase of research, even in the beginning phase of choosing a
problem to study, and is covered throughout the book. oA
comprehensive research methods text for cultural anthropologists
oCovers research design, data collection and data analysis oFull
coverage of both qualitative and quantitative approaches oWritten
in plain language. Turns research methods into fun reading oA real
how-to, hands-on text oExtensive bibliography on all topics covered
