It analyzes the role of qualitative researcher and the role of the context and the culture in quality of life studies. It presents the use of qualitative methods in real projects carried out in specific fields: geography, health, community studies, labor life and yoga. Finally, the book proposes the use of mixed methods that are considered as the third methodological approach in social research. The main purpose of using qualitative methods is to understand what it means for participants to be involved in certain events, situations and actions. Such methods help understand the context in which participants act and the influence of that context on their actions. The decision to use a particular methodology implies a philosophic, theoretical and political decision. Qualitative methodology constitutes an approach that is essential for understanding people?s experiences of well-being and discovering new issues related to quality of life. 410 0$aSocial Indicators Research Series,$x1387-6570 ;$v55 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aEthnopsychology 606 $aMedicine$xResearch 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aQuality of Life Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X23000 606 $aCross Cultural Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20100 606 $aQuality of Life Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H65000 606 $aMethodology of the Social Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X17000 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aEthnopsychology. 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 14$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aCross Cultural Psychology. 615 24$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aMethodology of the Social Sciences. 676 $a305.072 702 $aTonon$b Graciela$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483955003321 996 $aQualitative Studies in Quality of Life$92852540 997 $aUNINA
