Primary Care Research: Traditional and Innovative Approaches, Vol. 4

Primary Care Research covers traditional medical-epidemiological methods and non-traditional qualitative methods which are relevant to the discipline of primary medical care - defined as the medical care of first contact. More than just a summary of research methods, many chapters contain examples that can serve as models for readers planning studies of their own. Other chapters deal with the standards appropriate to primary care research. Included are such topics as refining the research question, how the question dictates the method used, epidemiologic standards, case study methods and combining methods in research.Norton, Peter G. is the author of 'Primary Care Research: Traditional and Innovative Approaches, Vol. 4', published 1990 under ISBN 9780803938700 and ISBN 0803938705.
