Book Description
The Introduction to Qualitative Methods in Psychology by Dennis Howitt, now in its third edition (PDF), is more helpful than ever before. This reliable and helpful student resource walks the reader through qualitative research from the point of collecting data to the point of analyzing the results, providing extremely clear examples and explanations along the way. In addition to that, it has specialized parts that provide direction on issues pertaining to quality, ethics, and report writing. The methods are dissected in order to provide a piece of step-by-step practical assistance and counsel; this makes it possible for university students to comprehend the theory and conduct their own independent study. All of this is accomplished while simultaneously delivering a comprehensive historical and theoretical framework for the qualitative methodologies.

Reviews
“The ebook is a fantastic resource for students studying at the undergraduate level.” — Gina Z. Koutsopoulou and the University of Leeds
“The language is simple, and the instances are elaborated upon in a way that is easily understood.” There is no question in my mind that it will be appropriate for college freshmen in addition to those with a somewhat deeper level of comprehension. — Jane Montague and the University of Derby
