Qualitative Methods in Psychology

The current favour enjoyed by qualitative research methods reflects both the refinement of analytical skills within the social sciences and the increasing concern of researchers and students for a culturally and historically situated comprehension of social processes. The volume identifies available, viable tools for addressing new topics that the diversification of social contexts imposes on social psychology, clinical psychology, educational psychology, childhood psychology, and health psychology. The methods that have most drawn the attention of psychologists in recent years include discourse analysis, conversation analysis, narrative analysis, ecocultural analysis, psychosemiotic analysis of texts, speech acts and images, and analysis of talking action.
