Abstract

Meta-synthesis is defined as the systematic review, integration and interpretation of findings from qualitative research. Although there are many studies carried out using the meta-synthesis method in the national and international literature, it has been observed that there is a need for a systematic study explaining the scope and process of meta-synthesis in the national literature. It was thought that it was necessary for practitioners to support the knowledge of meta-synthesis, which was brought together holistically, with examples. With this study, the definition, scope and process of meta-synthesis in qualitative research is explained, together with examples of meta-synthesis in the field of old age, it aims to reveal the body of information as a guide in this field.

Özet

Meta-sentez, nitel araştırmalardan elde edilen bulguların sistematik olarak gözden geçirilmesi, bütünleştirilmesi ve yorumlanması olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Ulusal ve uluslararası literatürde meta-sentez yöntemi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilen birçok araştırma bulunmakla birlikte, ulusal literatürde meta-sentezin kapsamını ve sürecini açıklayan sistematik bir çalışmaya ihtiyaç olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Özellikle bütünsel olarak bir araya getirilen meta-senteze ait bilginin örneklerle de desteklenmesi uygulayıcılar için gerekli olduğu düşünülmüştür. Bu çalışma ile nitel araştırmalarda meta-sentezin tanımı, kapsamı ve sürecinin açıklanması ile birlikte, yaşlılık alanında yapılmış meta-sentez örneklerine yer vererek, bu alanda rehber niteliğinde bilgi bütününü ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır.
