Routledge International Handbook of Qualitative Nursing Research by Cheryl Tatano Beck Pdf
Qualitative research, once on the fringes, now plays a central part in advancing nursing and midwifery knowledge, contributing to the development of the evidence base for healthcare practice. Divided into four parts, this authoritative handbook contains over forty chapters on the state of the art and science of qualitative research in nursing. The first part begins by addressing the significance of qualitative inquiry to the development of nursing knowledge, and then goes on to explore in depth programs of qualitative nursing research. The second section focuses on a wide range of core qualitative methods, from descriptive phenomenology, through to formal grounded theory and to ethnography, and narrative research. The third section highlights key issues and controversies in contemporary qualitative nursing research, including discussion of ethical and political issues, evidence-based practice and Internet research. The final section takes a unique look at qualitative nursing research as it is practiced throughout the world with chapters on countries and regions from the UK and Europe, North America, Australasia, Latin America, to Japan, China, and Korea. With an international selection of established scholars contributing, this is an essential overview and will help to propel qualitative research in nursing well into the twenty-first century. It is an invaluable reference for all nursing researchers.
Qualitative Nursing Research by Janice M. Morse Pdf
An American Journal of Nursing 1991 Book of the Year Debates about counting and coding data, ethical issues of interviewing, improving the use of self, examining one′s own culture--these are but a few of the troublesome issues nursing researchers face on a daily basis. Written for nursing researchers and graduate students, Qualitative Nursing Research addresses many of the problematic issues described above. Leading qualitative methodologists with backgrounds in phenomenology, grounded theory, and ethnography contribute specific chapters on their favorite sticky issues--which in turn form the basis for the informative dialogues at the beginning of each chapter. These stimulating dialogues reflect the active disagreements and different solutions presented, thus accurately indicating the state of the science in nursing today. In addition, contributors also examine the importance of funding, institutional review, and peer reviews. Qualitative Nursing Research is a vital resource for all nursing researchers and their advanced students. "The book is a valuable contribution grounded in the current state of qualitative research. There are some answers, solutions, suggestions offered for teaching, for conducting or not conducting research in your own culture, for getting a proposal funded, for interviewing, for choosing a sample, for combining different methods in the same study, among others. The chapters are practical, reality-based; offering concrete examples to illustrate issues discussed. . . . There are insightful critiques of research throughout the book--identifying strengths, weaknesses, or inaccurate use of methods." --Phenomenology and the Human Sciences "The book′s mix of contributors is one of its major strengths. The authors represent a cross section of major qualitative researchers. The perspectives represented include ethnography, phenomenology, and grounded theory. Collectively, they provide a vibrant and vital discussion of qualitative research in the 1990s. . . . The writing style is clear and readable. The editor has maintained the flavor of the original authors and blended the work into a consistent whole." --Rehabilitation Nursing Research "There are only a few substantial revisions to the first edition, but they are useful and important. . . .In her chapter ′Issues of Reliability and Validity′, Pamela Brink adds two very helpful sections in which she compares how the concepts of reliability and validity are treated differently in other qualitative research texts. Kathleen Knafl and Bonnie Breitmayer enhance their concluding discussion of triangulation and a solid bibliography on grant writing is added by Toni Tripp-Reimer and Marlene Zichi Cohen to their chapter ′Funding Strategies for Qualitative Research′. Moving through the book the reader will find the chapters to be . . . of high quality. . . Vangie Bergum′s ′Being a Phenomenological Researcher′, shine in their clarity and resonance. There is much that is useful here. . . practical pointers are offered in the various chapters, such as schedules for research projects, tips for interviewing and access, suggestions for getting qualitative research through institutional review boards, and how to teach qualitative research methods. Thought-provoking issues are raised, such as Brink′s notion that nursing practice as a process demands longitudinal research. Morse′s aim, to address some of the gaps in the qualitative text books, is well met. Graduate students and experienced researchers alike will find the book useful. It is one that a researcher can, in the spirit of dialogue, repeatedly return to in order to explore the questions which arise in the reading. Engaging in dialogue is made easier by the book′s format. . . . Each chapter is preceded by excerpts of dialogue from the discussion [Chicago symposium, 1987]. Some of the most interesting points are raised in these excerpts. The establishment of strong qualitative research programs by the book′s contributors . . . is noteworthy. . . . Qualitative Nursing Research: A Contemporary Dialogue makes an important contribution to the developing body of knowledge in the exploration of meaning in experience in health and illness and in nursing." --International Journal of Nursing Studies "[This book] represents an important addition to the former dearth of texts on qualitative research methods for nurses who wish to pursue ethnographic, grounded theory, and phenomenological approaches. Not only does this book make clear the distinct nature of each of these traditions, but it also wrestles with the contentious issues of sampling, to count or not to count during analysis, reliability and validity, and triangulation in qualitative research." --Palliative Medicine "I have found the book to be one of the best available on issues surrounding qualitative nursing research. . . . The strengths of Dr. Morse′s book are clear articulation of the issues on a wide range of topics pertinent to qualitative research, description of possible solutions, and recognition that other points of view are valid. . . . An additional unique feature is the short ′dialogues′ between chapters. These dialogues provide the reader with an opportunity to trace the thought processes of the contributors as they struggle with the issues. The dialogues raise to consciousness those often unrecognized problems with which qualitative nurse researchers must deal in order to develop the methodology for nursing." --Joan E. Haase, Ph.D., R.N., The University of Arizona "A whole range of methodological, conceptual and technical complexities are exposed and examined. All kinds of questions which I have pondered over are raised here. . . . This is a book which makes a scholarly and significant contribution to an important debate. It should be compulsory reading for all those who claim to be doing supervising or teaching qualitative research." --Nursing Standard "This book is timely because of the tremendous debate going on about the American health care system and how it may be improved. Now, more than ever, nurses have an opportunity to prove to people in decision-making roles that ′Nursing′ can contribute more to the solution of the problems than has been allowed in the past." --Health Values From the first edition: "This book is a compilation of richly textured, intelligent, well documented, and personally informed papers on issues facing qualitative nurse researchers today. . . . The discussions are refreshingly direct, uncompromised, and spirited in tone, perhaps because, initially, the target audience was made up of peers engaged in qualitative research." --Nursing Research "[Provides] salient writings of leading qualitative nursing researchers from the United States and Canada. . . . The book provides a much needed exchange of the ideas related to ′sticky issues′ in qualitative research and promotes concepts that can be used by qualitative researchers and reviewers." --Gerontological Nursing

Nursing Research Using Grounded Theory by Mary De Chesnay, PhD, RN, PMHCNS-BC, FAAN Pdf
Grounded theory, often considered the parent of all qualitative research, is a complex approach used to develop theory about a phenomenon rooted in observation of empirical data. Widely used in nursing, grounded theory enables researchers to apply what they learn from interviewees to a wider client population. This is a practical "how to" guide to conducting research using this qualitative design. It is part of an innovative series for novice researchers and specialists alike focusing on nine state-of-the-art methodologies from a nursing perspective. International scholars of grounded theory discuss the theoretical rationale for using this design, describe its components, and delineate a plan for generating theory using grounded theory methodology. Examples from published nursing research, with author commentary, help support new and experienced researchers in making decisions and facing challenges. The book describes traditional and focused grounded theory, phases of research, and methodology from sample and setting to dissemination and follow-up. It encompasses state-of-the-art research about grounded theory with an extensive bibliography and resources. Varied case studies range from promoting health for an overweight child to psychological adjustment of Chinese women with breast cancer to a study of nursing students' experiences in the off-campus clinical setting, among many others. The book also discusses techniques whereby researchers can ensure high standards of rigor. Each chapter includes objectives, competencies, review questions, critical thinking exercises, and links to web resources. With a focus on practical problem solving throughout, the book will be of value to novice and experienced nurse researchers, graduate teachers and students, in-service educators and students, and nursing research staff at health care institutions. Key Features: Includes examples of state-of-the-art grounded theory nursing research with content analysis and extensive bibliography Describes types of grounded theory, phases of research, and methodology Provides case studies including description, data collection and analysis, and dissemination Written by international scholars of grounded theory research
Teaching Qualitative Research by Rosalind E. Hurworth Pdf
Over the past two decades there has been a plethora of book for students about how to tackle Qualitative Research (QR), but absolutely nothing on how to teach it! This book attempts to redress the imbalance by presenting a history of what is known about QR teaching, as well as to bring alive current QR teaching and learning through a set of Australian and British case studies. Courses visited were located within a variety of disciplines (including Education, Sociology, Anthropology, Nursing, Psychology, Communications and Evaluation), were taught by both experienced and inexperienced lecturers, were either presented alone or in pairs, took place in a range of institutions. lasted from seven weeks to a year and involved from 15 to over 100 students. It emerged, however that, no matter what the context, several common issues were raised such as: Should you teach theory, practice or both? How do you determine a curriculum for a QR course? What is the best way to manage student projects? How should students of QR be assessed? In what ways can the constraints of University structures be confronted? and How can lecturer deficiencies in training and experience be overcome? To answer such questions, Professor Hurworth draws deftly from personal observations and rich conversations with both lecturers and students from all the courses described. As a result many practical ideas for moving the teaching and learning of QR forward, are suggested.
