Qualitative Diary Methods cover

Qualitative diary methods (QDMs) are a versatile range of multi-modal data collection methods that involve participants recording events and experiences, and emotions and reflections, as they happen, on multiple occasions and over a particular time period. These data collection methods include a pen and paper diary, as well as other electronic modes of diary keeping, including text but also audio, photo-, video-, and app-based diaries that allow for a range of modalities.

This book is an essential resource, offering innovative and practical approaches for analyzing the infrequently discussed methodology of qualitative diary analysis. A must-read for any qualitative researcher. -- Michael Kreiter
This is an exceptional overview of an often overlooked and misunderstood methodological approach. Radcliffe and Spencer are able to seamlessly integrate a solid theoretical and methodological foundation with an applied "real world" approach ensuring readers are able to both understand and practice qualitative diary methods in a constructive and innovative manner that should advance the practice across the social sciences and beyond. -- Jason R. Jolicoeur
This text offers an important addition to qualitative research methodologies for consideration in the context of today′s expanding sources of data. -- Lisa R. Roberts
