İyi Bir Kalitatif Kanıt Sentezi Nasıl Yazılmalı?

Abstract

İyi bir kalitatif derleme, ilgili fenomen ve araştırma sorusu için var olan tüm kanıtların sentezlenerek okuyucuya sunulduğu bulunmaz bir kaynaktır. Çok kapsamlı bir literatür taramasının yapılması ve yazarın önyargısının daha düşük olması nedeniyle sistematik derlemeler altın standart olarak kabul edilmektedir. Son yıllarda nitel araştırmanın özellikle politika ve uygulamayı etkileme gücünün daha fazla farkına varılması ile nitel araştırmanın sistematik derlemeleri olarak da bilinen nitel kanıt sentezlerine olan ihtiyaç daha fazla hissedilmeye başlanmıştır. Nitel kanıt sentezleri kanıt yönünden güçlü olmasıyla beraber, araştırma yöntemi uygun olarak tasarlanmadığında ve raporlanmadığında yanlılık riskini artırır. Niteliksel kanıt sentezleri metodolojik olarak geleneksel sistematik derlemelerden farklılıklar gösterir. Bu makalede iyi bir kalitatif kanıt sentezi yazımı ile ilgili bilgiler literatür doğrultusunda paylaşılmaktadır.

How To Write a Good Qualitative Evidence Synthesis?

Abstract

A good qualitative review is an invaluable resource, synthesizing and presenting all available evidence for the interesting phenomenon and research question. Systematic reviews are considered the gold standard because of a comprehensive literature review and lower author bias. In recent years, with the increasing awareness of the power of qualitative research to influence policy and practice, the need for qualitative evidence syntheses, also known as systematic reviews of qualitative research, has begun to be felt more. Although qualitative evidence syntheses are strong in terms of evidence, they increase the risk of bias when the research method is not properly designed and reported. Qualitative evidence syntheses differ methodologically from traditional systematic reviews. In this article, information about writing a good qualitative evidence synthesis is shared in line with the literature.
