TL;DR: Although the general inductive approach is not as strong as some other analytic strategies for theory or model development, it does provide a simple, straightforward approach for deriving findings in the context of focused evaluation questions.
Abstract: A general inductive approach for analysis of qualitative evaluation data is described. The purposes for using an inductive approach are to (a) condense raw textual data into a brief, summary format; (b) establish clear links between the evaluation or research objectives and the summary findings derived from the raw data; and (c) develop a framework of the underlying structure of expe- riences or processes that are evident in the raw data. The general inductive approach provides an easily used and systematic set of procedures for analyzing qualitative data that can produce reliable and valid findings. Although the general inductive approach is not as strong as some other analytic strategies for theory or model development, it does provide a simple, straightforward approach for deriving findings in the context of focused evaluation questions. Many evaluators are likely to find using a general inductive approach less complicated than using other approaches to qualitative data analysis.

TL;DR: The last two decades have seen a notable growth in the use of qualitative methods for applied social policy research as discussed by the authors, which is underpinned by the persistent requirement in social policy fields to understand complex behaviours, needs, systems and cultures.
Abstract: The last two decades have seen a notable growth in the use of qualitative methods
for applied social policy research. Qualitative research is now used to explore
and understand a diversity of social and public policy issues, either as an
independent research strategy or in combination with some form of statistical
inquiry. The wider use of qualitative methods has come about for a number of
reasons but is underpinned by the persistent requirement in social policy fields
to understand complex behaviours, needs, systems and cultures.
