This book provides a comprehensive overview of the range of approaches and methods available for synthesising qualitative and quantitative evidence and a detailed explanation of why this is important.
Every year a vast number of research studies and a myriad of other forms of ‘evidence’ are produced that have potential to inform policy and practice. Synthesis provides a way of bringing together diverse kinds of evidence to bridge the so called ‘gap’ between evidence and policy.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the range of approaches and methods available for synthesising qualitative and quantitative evidence and a detailed explanation of why this is important. It does this by:
- Looking at the different types of review and examining the place of synthesis in reviews for policy and management decision making
- Describing the process of conducting and interpreting syntheses
- Suggesting questions which can be used to assess the quality of a synthesis
