Resource List for Understanding Qualitative and Mixed Method Approaches

We are excited to highlight a new resource list that includes articles and books for readers wanting to learn more about applying qualitative and mixed method approaches to social policy research and evaluation. The list, authored by Westat Insight’s Hilary Wagner for OPRE’s 2022 Methods Meeting, defines qualitative inquiry and highlights how rigor and relevance can be prioritized, identifies key considerations for designing mixed methods studies, indicates strategies for effectively integrating qualitative and qualitative methods, and shows how qualitative and mixed methods approaches can promote equity and inclusion in research.
