Qualitative Research in Occupational Therapy Strategies and Experiences

Qualitative Research in Occupational Therapy provides an overview of the need for qualitative inquiry of occupation, occupational therapy practices and the experiences of occupational therapy clients. It also explains and illustrates the natural fit between the beliefs and assumptions of occupational therapy and those of the qualitative paradigm of scientific inquiry. In addition to overviews of types of studies and the major strategies of research data collection, this text distinguishes itself from most others by including a series of narratives on the research journey. In addition, reprints of select published studies illustrate the richness of qualitative studies in occupational therapy.
