Description
Qualitative Literacy: A Guide to Evaluating Ethnographic and Interview Research provides essential tools for assessing the quality of qualitative research methods. This guide helps social scientists, researchers, students, evaluators, policy makers, and journalists identify and evaluate sound field research.
With an emphasis on critical thinking, Qualitative Literacy offers criteria to distinguish between empirically sound and unsound qualitative studies. The book is particularly relevant to fields such as inequality, poverty, education, public health, immigration, the family, and criminal justice, where qualitative research plays a vital role.
By providing a framework for evaluating qualitative research, Qualitative Literacy supports informed decision-making in these areas. This guide is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to critically assess and improve their own fieldwork or that of others.
