The workshop will > explore the synthesis of qualitative research, drawing on the meta > ethnography technique developed by Noblit and Hare (1988). > > The workshop will be based around 4 papers which will be used to > identify key concepts and begin the process of 'reciprocal > translation' - comparing and developing the analytical concepts. > The workshop will then explore the next step of using mapping and > charting techniques to display and reconsider the emerging > findings. The final part of the workshop will consider different > approaches to presentation of the results of synthesis and provide > an opportunity to reflect on the process of synthesis. > > Nicky Britten is Professor of Applied Health Care Research at > Peninsula Medical School and Catherine Pope is Reader in Health > Services Research at the University of Southampton.
