Visual Displays in Qualitative and Mixed Method Research: A Comprehensive Guide

Description: Visual Displays in Qualitative and Mixed Method Research by Elizabeth G. Creamer This boundary-spanning textbook explores diverse ways that visual display can advance understanding of complex social phenomenon in applied fields in the social and human sciences. It investigates how integrative tables and figures have been creatively adapted in diverse contemporary contexts where qualitative methods are prominent. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This boundary-spanning textbook explores diverse ways that visual display can advance understanding of complex social phenomenon in applied fields in the social and human sciences. It provides a window into the latest advances in mixed methods research (MMR) by investigating how integrative tables and figures have been creatively adapted in diverse contemporary contexts where qualitative methods are prominent.The book affirms that the usefulness of visual displays is not restricted to reporting; it extends to helping investigators conceptualize a research problem, embed quality in research design during planning, advance multi-dimensional sampling, to extend analysis, and as a tool to highlight integration during reporting. Chapters feature examples that demonstrate how different shapes and textual devices that are available through basic word processing software can help an investigator to think more complexly about the multi-dimensionality or temporality of a construct, process, or phenomenon.Tailored for emerging scholars, this comprehensive resource book will prove useful in seminars and workshops designed to assist students in writing a research proposal. It is it is an invaluable textbook for a new generation of hybrid research methods courses that combine qualitative and mixed methods in the social sciences, education, and healthcare. Author Biography Elizabeth G. Creamer is Professor Emerita from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, USA. She is the author of two previous textbooks about mixed methods research, An Introduction to Fully Integrated Mixed Methods Research (2018) and Advancing Grounded Theory with Mixed Methods Research (2018). Table of Contents 1. Exploring Different Types of Visual Displays 2. Embedding Visual Displays in Planning and Data Management 3. Advancing Theory Development and Refinement with Visual Displays 4.

Centering Visual Displays in Reporting Practices Review This comprehensive guide offers novice, early career, and even seasoned researchers an extensive opportunity to push their thinking on leveraging visual displays. It is particularly innovative in providing rigorous examples for unpacking complex research settings during the discovery and design phases.Dr. Emma P. Bullock, Associate Professor, Sam Houston State University, USA.Creamer masterfully walks the reader through how to select the right visual display, how to use displays for complex integration, and how to construct and create high quality displays for publications. This is the book I needed years ago.Timothy C. Guetterman, Associate Director, Mixed Methods Program, University of Michigan, USA.Visual displays can play a crucial role in both conducting and communicating mixed methods research. Dr. Creamers book provides a comprehensive framework for both roles. This book provides an overview of past use of visual displays, current trends, and points towards innovative uses of visual displays to advance work in this area. This book is an essential tool for emerging and advanced mixed methods researchers alike.Dr. Matthew McCrudden, Professor of Education, Pennsylvania State University, USA.This groundbreaking text is destined to become a favorite among individuals seeking to enhance their use of visuals in mixed methods research and eager to introduce others to its extensive benefits. It is impressive to see such a diverse array of examples to skillfully navigate and enrich the requisite integration.Cheryl Poth, Professor, University of Alberta, USA.
