The Quantitative CDM Doctoral Dissertation
The Quantitative CDM Doctoral Dissertation
This chapter discusses and illustrates the use of quantitative CDM methodology in recently completed social work doctoral dissertations. Although these doctoral dissertations are more methodologically sophisticated and inventive than the studies presented in the previous chapter, they are no less practice-relevant than those conducted by practitioners in practice settings. Indeed, most were done by practitioners going on for doctoral degrees with a desire to return to practice or to bring what they know about practice to teaching. All are interested in contributing to the knowledge-base of the profession and have found CDM an especially congenial way of doing that.
