The SAGE handbook of mixed methods in social & behavioral research

The Handbook of Mixed Methods in Social & Behavioral Research contains a goldmine of articles by leading scholars on what has come to be known as the third methodological movement in social research. Aimed at surveying the differingviewpoints and disciplinary approaches of mixed methods, this breakthrough book examines mixed methods from the research enterprise to paradigmatic issues to application. The book also discusses the strengths and weaknesses of mixed methods designs, and provides an array of specific examples in a variety of disciplines, from psychology to nursing. The book closes with a brief section onhow to teach and perform collaborative research using a mixed methods research design. Written so that it can be used either as a pedagogical tool or as a reference for researchers, the book is rich in examples and includes a glossary, easy-to-follow diagrams, and tables to help readers become more familiar with the language and controversies in this evolving area.
