Whereas you are looking specifically at nurses, I am looking across the domain and have parents and professionals and the professionals include health and education. But I like the idea of working with case studies and feeding into those from the experience of others.<br />Are you using any particular theoreticians to support your methodology?lizithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822023967751437766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7217923436810532687.post-22590726051362601742011-04-04T09:05:06.818+01:002011-04-04T09:05:06.818+01:00Thanks for your comment.

As the number of particpants for this type of research is a little high in my study I think the use of 6 in depth 'cases' will help to reatin that holistic focus.Nickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05064890919543394215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7217923436810532687.post-44000772775491643972011-04-02T23:22:58.471+01:002011-04-02T23:22:58.471+01:00Very interested in your approach and not wanting t...Very interested in your approach and not wanting to fragment people into a series of quotes. I've been struggling with taking a holistic approach too, and have wondered about case studies. I'll look forward to reading how you have tackled the thematic analysis and comparing it with my approach.<br />Interesting too to see you are working in the learning disability field - my interest is allied, but a more general support theme and based on high functioning part of autism spectrum.lizithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822023967751437766noreply@blogger.com
