"The dissociation, anxiety and intrusive thinking associated with PTSD and other trauma-related difficulties can be a huge source of distress for sufferers and their families. Mindfulness has been found to be an excellent intervention for these symptoms. However, traditional manualised group mindfulness programmes can sometimes inadvertently re-trigger the very traumasymptoms they seek to alleviate."-- Provided by publisher

This practical resource enhances the use of qualitative data in health research by focusing on naturally occurring data. It explores how this type of data complements interviews and other researcher-generated sources, guiding readers through the processes of identifying, collecting, analyzing, and ethically disseminating findings that hold real-world relevance. The authors emphasize the significance of evidence-based practice in healthcare, advocating for naturally occurring data as a valuable form of practice-based evidence. The book examines often-overlooked sources of naturally occurring data, such as media, social media, health policy, forensic contexts, and digital communications. Key topics include the benefits and limitations of using naturally occurring data, qualitative approaches that can be enhanced by this data, and the application of computer-mediated communications in health research. It also addresses the use of naturally occurring data to study vulnerable populations and provides empirical examples of health research leveraging this approach. This resource makes concepts, methods, and rationales accessible for health and mental health professionals, including health administrators, research methodology experts, psychology researchers, and clinicians in training.
