Applied Research for Better Practice (British Association of Social Workers (BASW) Practical Social Work) (Practical Social Work) (Practical Social Work)

by Angela Everitt, Pauline Hardiker, Jane Littlewood, and Audrey Mullender

Addressing the alienation of practitioners from positivist and quantitative research, this book shows how research can be compatible with how practitioners collect and understand data. Drawing on research approaches that take account of subjectivity and employ participative methods, the authors develop an approach to practice for the research- minded practitioner. Whilst useful for practitioners wanting to do research, the primary intention of this book is to explore ways in which practitioners may be research-minded in their work.
