Miles M., Hberman M., Sdana J. Qualitative Data Analysis: A Methods Sourcebook

N.-Y.: Sage, 2014. - 341p.This is a practical methods sourcebook for all researchers who make use of qualitative data. But it is not intended as a comprehensive text; we do not address matters such as how to gain entry into a site, how to write field notes, or how to facilitate participant interviews. We want to share our experiences and those of other colleagues in the design and use of qualitative data analysis methods. Strong emphasis is placed on data displays—matrices and networks—that go beyond ordinary narrative text. Each method of data display and analysis is described and illustrated in detail, with practical suggestions for the researcher’s use and adaptation with accessible software and basic programs.
