Qualitative Evidence Synthesis

Qualitative Evidence Synthesis is a method used to combine and analyze non-numerical research data, such as people's experiences, opinions, and reasons related to a specific topic. It helps researchers understand common themes and insights across different studies, providing a deeper understanding of complex issues. This approach is valuable when exploring how and why certain phenomena occur, capturing the richness of human perspectives. By synthesizing this information, policymakers, clinicians, and researchers can make better-informed decisions that consider people’s lived experiences and contextual factors, complementing quantitative evidence for a comprehensive view.
