Sociopolitical Underpinnings of Positivism and Qualitative Cultural Psychological Methodology -- References.Qualitative methodologies in cultural psychology often lack the objective and verifiable character of quantitative analysis. Author Carl Ratner corrects this shortcoming by rigorously systematizing qualitative methods. The book discusses, for example, means of systematizing such subjective reports as interviews, letters, and diaries, which often yield valuable data that is not easily quantified. Ratner argues that "complex psychological phenomena are expressed through extended responses" and hence are best studied by new, more regularized qualitative methods that go beyond measuring simple, overt responses.Path in Psychology, Published in Cooperation with Publications for the Advancement of Theory and History in Psychology (Path)PsychologyMethodologyEthnopsychologyPsychological MethodsCross-Cultural PsychologyPsychologyMethodology.Ethnopsychology.Psychological Methods.Cross-Cultural Psychology.150155.8Ratner Carlauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut786639MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968882203321Cultural Psychology and Qualitative Methodology4431457UNINA
