Narrative research is an increasingly popular way of carrying out
qualitative research by analysing the stories or experience. The
findings of this type of qualitative research can be used to
improve nursing education, nursing practice and patient care and to
explore the experience of illness and the interaction between
professionals. Narrative Research in Nursing provides a
comprehensive yet straightforward introduction to narrative
research which examines the skills needed to perform narrative
interviews, analyse data, and publish results and enables nurse
researchers to use the method systematically and rigorously.
Narrative Research in Nursing examines the nature of
narratives and their role in the development of nursing and health
care. Strategies and procedures are identified, including the
practicalities of sampling, data collection, analysis and
presentation of findings. The authors discuss authenticity of
evidence and ethical issues while also exploring problems and
practicalities inherent in narrative inquiry and its dissemination.
Narrative Research in Nursing is a valuable resource for
nurses interested in writing and publishing narrative research.
