Product Description
PLooking for a practical guide to using mixed methodologies? This book explores the most effective way to combine qualitative and quantitative methodologies. It begins with a discussion of the paradigm wars between positivism and constructivism, explains the difference between using mixed methods in just the research methodology portion of a study versus using mixed model studies across all phases of the research process, and then presents a typology of mixed methods and mixed model studies. The authors next examine sampling and internal validity issues, reliability and validity questions, data collection procedures (including self-report techniques, questionnaires, observational methods, interaction analysis, and archival/cultural artifacts), and data analysis techniques. The book concludes with a discussion of detailed examples of current published and unpublished research that utilized mixed approaches. Researchers wanting to learn how to think about and utilize mixed methods in their studies will find this a useful guide for their work./PPThis book is a valuable addition to standard textbooks in graduate-level research methodology courses in education, psychology, sociology, nursing, and other behavioral/health sciences. /P

Mixed Methodology Combining Qualitiative and Quantitative Approaches February 20, 2007
1 out of 5 found this review helpful

Too little for too much! As a graduate student trying to complete the course work for my PhD in curriculum and instruction, and having to spend money on tuition and books, the price of this book is outrageous. Considering I have to work 7 and 1/2 hours to make $70.00, the information given in less than 200 pages is not worth more than half a day's salary. I think I could better appreciate what the authors are saying if it were at a lower cost.

absolutely essential January 27, 2005

This book, along with John Creswell's "Research Design," cover everything you need to know about research design -- and at a brief 200 pages each. br /br /If you are in graduate school, I guarantee you will get so much out of these books. Even if bought brand new, the combined $70 for both are more than worth the investment.br /br /Brief, relevant, practical, to the point....perfect!
