Combining Methods
- Cresswell talks about separate methods.
- So, there are qualitative methods like case
studies and grounded theory,
- and quantitative methods (that aren't really broken
down into subcategories).
- A mixed method combines elements of both.
- Note that this assumes that you do one then another.
- It's not an issue of creating a new method that is a hybrid of
a qualitative and a quantitative method.
- The question is how to combine these methods.
