The Future of Theory-Generating Meta-Synthesis Research
Intimate Partner Violence and Its Resolution Among African American Women
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a significant problem that is difficult to overcome within African American communities. Thus, the purpose of this qualitative systematic review was to synthesize isolated qualitative findings relating to IPV among African American women to make them more meaningful and generalizable. A framework of IPV among African American women resulted from this work, and key elements include the following: ubiquitous and p…
Metasynthesis Findings
Early on, qualitative researchers predicted that metasynthesis research had the potential to significantly push knowledge development forward. More recently, scholars have questioned whether this is actually occurring. To examine this concern, a randomly selected sample of metasynthesis articles was systematically reviewed to identify the types of findings that have been produced. Based on this systematic examination, it appears that findings fro…
Use of content analysis to conduct knowledge-building and theory-generating qualitative systematic reviews
Findings from knowledge-building and theory-generating qualitative systematic reviews have the potential to help guide policy formation and practice in many disciplines. Unfortunately, this potential is currently hindered by the fact that rigorous data analysis methods have not been consistently used and/or articulated for purposes of conducting these types of reviews. Content analysis is a flexible data analysis method that can be used to conduc…
Perceived Competency and Resolution of Homelessness Among Women With Substance Abuse Problems
Using a metasynthesis approach, our aim was to articulate new insights relating to the most efficient and effective means of helping homeless women with substance abuse problems to enhance their well-being and become more stably housed. Distorted perceptions of competency, which are shaped by dysfunctional relationships and mental health problems, make it challenging for women with substance abuse problems to resolve homelessness. Women with part…
Telephone Social Support or Nursing Presence? Analysis of a Nursing Intervention
The purpose of this qualitative analysis is to elucidate more fully telephone social support as it was delivered within the context of a randomized controlled investigation. To this end, the author used constant comparative methods to analyze telephone logs. The findings are congruent with the operational definition of social support that was selected for the randomized controlled study; however, they are also suggestive of nursing presence. Comp…
