定性元分析是一种有目的的、连贯的方法来分析定性研究中的数据。这是一个过程，使研究人员能够确定一个具体的研究问题，然后搜索，选择，评价，总结，并联合收割机定性证据来解决研究问题。这个过程使用严格的定性方法来综合现有的定性研究，通过解释过程来构建更大的意义。本文的目的是描述质的元认知理论作为一种创新的研究方法的早期儿童干预领域。虽然这在其他领域并不是一种新的研究方法，但作者认为它可以在儿童早期干预领域提供一种有前途的实践。在这篇文章中，作者探讨了质的元认知理论如何成为一种实用有效的探究方法，因为他们继续扩大对残疾儿童及其家庭的理解。
Qualitative metasynthesis is an intentional and coherent approach to analyzing data across qualitative studies. It is a process that enables researchers to identify a specific research question and then search for, select, appraise, summarize, and combine qualitative evidence to address the research question. This process uses rigorous qualitative methods to synthesize existing qualitative studies to construct greater meaning through an interpretative process. The purpose of this article is to describe qualitative metasynthesis as an innovative research approach for the field of early childhood intervention. Although this is not a new research approach in other fields, the authors suggest that it can offer a promising practice in the field of early childhood intervention. In this article, the authors explore how qualitative metasynthesis can be a practical and effective approach of inquiry as they continue to broaden their understanding about young children with disabilities and their families.
