John W. Creswell and Cheryl N. Poth guide researchers in exploring, evaluating, and applying five qualitative research approaches: narrative research, phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography, and case study. For each of the five qualitative inquiry traditions, the authors explore the philosophical underpinnings, history, defining features, common data procedures and writing structures. The book introduces the philosophical and interpretive frameworks that shape qualitative research, embedding essential discussions about ethical considerations throughout, so that readers get a holistic picture of qualitative research. In one chapter, a single study illustrates applying each of the five approaches to the same research problem. The authors compare approaches across the qualitative research process in a highly accessible manner that shows readers the many options for conducting research. Featuring comprehensive content, new articles, revamped exercises, updated references, and following the 7th edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association throughout, the Fifth Edition is an ideal introduction to the theories, strategies, and practices of qualitative inquiry.
