Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike other types of qualitative research, the clinical perspective in field research does not aim to be impartial and uninvolved. The clinician is usually a consultant brought in specifically to effect change in an organization, and therefore works under a very different set of technical and ethical restraints. Edgar Schein succinctly outlines the clinical perspective in field research, how it differs from other types of qualitative research and its inherent rewards and difficulties.

Book excerpt: Feminist Fieldwork Analysis teaches researchers how to think in terms of the feminist perspective and how to translate their research into feminist practice and analysis. This "tricks of the trade" guide gives researchers the principles for doing qualitative work, examples of solid feminist studies, and analytic questions to help identify feminist issues while in the field or at the desk. These issues aren't just about gender. Rather, they are about inequality. Feminist research sheds light on inequality so that people can undo it. Author Sherryl Kleinman offers angles for feminist analysis, or the things to keep in mind when doing fieldwork and developing an analysis. Key Features: Gives researchers five principles for doing, qualitative work and research: Each chapter provides a guiding feminist principle (which corresponds with the chapter title): Talk Is Action, Similarities Can Be Deceiving, Sexism Can Be Anywhere, The Personal Is Political, and Everything Is More Than One Thing. Contains real world examples of feminist fieldwork analysis: Engaging examples illustrate the principles as feminist researchers apply their findings to their everyday lives. Poses questions to bring to any feminist qualitative project: Kleinman incorporates analytical questions at the end of each chapter that encourage researchers to think about what to ask, where to look, and how to make sense of what they've seen and heard. Covers the entire research process: The principles and questions found in this book can be used at any stage of the research process, including choosing a setting, analyzing an observation, and writing a report. Helps researchers interpret data in new ways: By applying what they find in this book, researchers see things in the field they would not have noticed otherwise, or they might see connections between pieces of data that previously appeared unrelated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fieldwork is a central method of research throughout anthropology, a much-valued, much-vaunted mode of generating information. But its nature and process have been seriously understudied in biological anthropology and primatology. This book is the first ever comparative investigation, across primatology, biological anthropology, and social anthropology, to look critically at this key research practice. It is also an innovative way to further the comparative project within a broadly conceived anthropology, because it does not focus on common theory but on a common method. The questions asked by contributors are: what in the pursuit of fieldwork is common to all three disciplines, what is unique to each, how much is contingent, how much necessary? Can we generate well-grounded cross-disciplinary generalizations about this mutual research method, and are there are any telling differences? Co-edited by a social anthropologist and a primatologist, the book includes a list of distinguished and well-established contributors from primatology and biological anthropology.

Book excerpt: This volume addresses many of the problematic issues in qualitative research. Leading qualitative methodologists from orientations in phenomenology, grounded theory and ethnography contribute chapters on their favourite issues, which also form the bases for the 'dialogues' which alternate with each chapter. Most of the problems discussed relate to every qualitative nursing project: improving the use of self; examining one's own culture; some myths and realities of qualitative sampling; debates about counting and coding data; and ethical issues in interviewing.

Book excerpt: Participatory Action Research (PAR) introduces a method that is ideal for researchers who are committed to co-developing research programs with people rather than for people. The book provides a history of this technique, its various strands, and the underlying tenets that guide most projects. It then draws on two PAR projects that highlight three integral dimensions: the meaning of participation; the way action manifests itself; and the strategies for gathering, analyzing, and disseminating information. Author Alice McIntyre describes the various ways in which PAR is carried out depending on, for example, the issue under investigation, the site of the project, the project participants, people's access to resources, and other related issues. Intended Audience: This resource is an ideal supplement for graduate courses PAR, qualitative research, and various types of action-based research.
