Qualitative Research: A Defense of Traditions; and A Response to Atkinson, Delamont, and Hammersley.

Jacob, Evelyn; Lincoln, Yvonna S. – Review of Educational Research, 1989
Two papers respond to an article by P. Atkinson, S. Delamont, and M. Hammersley (1988) critiquing papers by E. Jacob (1987, 1988) on qualitative research traditions. The use of T. Kuhn's concept of "paradigm" and the criticism that the British were not included in the Jacob's study are addressed. (TJH)

Graham, Sandra; And Others – Review of Educational Research, 1995
S. Graham comments on taking a meta-analytic approach to reviewing race differences in need for achievement, discussing limitations of the methodology. A rejoinder by H. Cooper and N. Dorr supports the utility of meta-analysis in such studies and discusses disadvantages to narrative review. (SLD)
