from process to product

Sparkes, A.C., & Smith, B. (2014). Qualitative research methods in sport, exercise and health: from process to product. London: Routledge.

The qualitative method is perhaps the most dynamic and exciting area of contemporary research in sport, exercise and health. Students and researchers at all levels are now expected to understand qualitative approaches and to employ these in their work. In this introductory text, the authors take the reader on an journey through the research process, offering a guide to the fundamentals of qualitative research. Each chapter contains comprehensive knowledge to enable new researchers to engage with and experience core methods and procedures, from semi-structured interviews to content analysis. The book also explores the 'what', 'when' an 'how' questions within all of the central traditions within qualitative research. Each chapter is also illustrated with cases and examples from real research in sport, exercise and health. The book also goes further than any oher textbook in exploring innovative contemporary methods, such as visual and sensual ethnography.
