Unfortunately not, but i think you’ll find it in the index.

Did you have a link to the article please?

Thanks very much Abeya

Landscape of qualitative research – there is an article on crystallization as a thinking mode which reduces the implication of meaning to be reflection on personal experience.

Hi  

I am just completing a rewrite of my thesis and I would love to read a paper comparing Thematic Analysis to Narrative Analysis, can anyone recommend one please?  The context is in the experiences of infertile women but any context would be a good starting point.

Thanks and best wishes

Paul– remember that your question should drive your method more than anything. Not the other way around.

Question?  Without having done any analysis of the content, does it make sense that a person could have a primary focus of “Narrative Analysis” … but… use elements of “Discourse Analysis” as a ‘supporting’ role?

Social media research ethics When designing a study– or reading a published article– how do you decide what is ethical practice for collecting data online? What ethics codes or guidelines do you trust?

Hi Lylyrey
I would suggest that you look at :
Seale, Clive. “Quality in qualitative research.” Qualitative inquiry 5.4 (1999): 465-478.

One of the best strategies is to consider what it is in your data that has convinced[Read more]
