Quali-Quantitative Analysis (QQA): Why It Could Open New Frontiers for Holistic Health Practice by Erica Bell

“…This paper argues “no”, and examines the potential of a cutting-edge, social science research method — Quali-Quantitative Research (QQA) — for providing better evidence for holistic practice, particularly in small-N populations, such as rural and remote communities. It does so with reference to the international literature on holistic medicine, as well as three holistic health projects conducted in Tasmania: about prevention of falls in older people, adolescent substance abuse, and interventions for children aged 05 exposed to domestic violence. …”
