Mixed Methodology: Combining Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches (Applied Social Research Methods)

Description:

Looking for a practical guide to using mixed methodologies? Authors Abbas Tashakkori and Charles Teddlie explore the most resourceful way to combine qualitative and quantitative methodologies. Beginning with a discussion of the paradigm wars between positivism and constructivism, Mixed Methodology explains the differences between using mixed methods in only 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 issues, reliability and validity questions, data collection procedures (including self-report techniques, questionnaires, observational methods, interaction analysis, and archival data/cultural artifacts), and data analysis techniques. Tashakkori and Teddlie conclude with detailed examples of current published and unpublished research that utilize mixed approaches. Researchers wanting to learn how to think about and utilize mixed methods in their studies will find this an indispensable guide for their work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mixed Methodology

S.S. · July 6, 2012

The book introduces "mixed methodology" as an own way to conduct research and in fact the main way to do that in social sciences. It is path breaking as it discusses in detail every aspect of the research process highlighting possible routes for each of the main research paradigms. Whoever is a greenhorn in social science research can greatly benefit of this book. I would recommend to also read the book of Teddlie and Tashakkori "Mixed Methods Research". This is a text book providing a glossary and teaches the approaches. Last but not least, Teddlie and Tashakkori are great and inspiring teachers. Their texts read like a novel or a thriller, it is never "dry" or boring to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read

T. · December 15, 2010

Mixed methodology is one of the best books which presents a wide range of thoughts and arguments concerning the two major research designs (Quans and Quals). The authors demonstrate philosophical underpinnings and practical procedures to be followed to design and implement "mixed methods" and "mixed model" designs. The book is a comprehensive text of how we can design research with respect to "research questions" as the main objective! However it seems obvious, that we should be doing so, the authors present the challenges and visions that make it inappropriate for many to think that way. This is a must read book for insightful researchers. I highly recommend it for all researchers and PhD students.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great taxonomy of methods

p. · July 21, 2013

This book gives a very detailed taxonomy so you can describe very precisely different approaches to research. Great reference book to have on the shelf if methodology is important for your work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading!
