"In this groundbreaking first volume of SAGE’s Evaluation in Practice Series, best-selling author Donna M. Mertens explores the meaning of mixed methods evaluation, its evolution over the last few decades, and the dominant philosophical frameworks that are influencing thought and practice in the field today. Four chapters explore evaluation of the effectiveness of interventions, development of instruments, systematic reviews, and policy evaluations, while an additional chapter covers mixed methods designs appropriate to specific contexts. Practical in nature, the book includes definitions of relevant concepts, sample studies that illustrate mixed methods designs, specific steps for each design, and application exercises.
