Description

In this collection, international contributors come together to discuss how qualitative and quantitative methods can be used in psychotherapy research. The book considers advantages and disadvantages of each approach as well as a recognition of how each method can enhance our understanding of psychotherapy.

Divided into two parts the book begins with an examination of quantitative research and discusses how we can transfer observations into numbers and statistical findings. Chapters on quantitative methods cover:

  • developing new and improving existing findings

  • identifying and analysing change

  • using meta-analysis

the second half of the book comprises chapters considering how qualitative and mixed methods can be used in psychotherapy research.
