    2. This seminar draws on presentations and discussions at March 2001 conference at Cornell University, summarized in Ravi Kanbur, ed., Q-Squared: Combining Qualitative and Quantitative Methods In Poverty Appraisal (Delhi: Permanent Black, forthcoming), as well as on the insights of colleagues in several multidisciplinary collaborative research projects.

    3. Significant recent progress in both qualitative (QUAL) and quantitative (QUANT) methods: - rapid rise of PA methods - emergence of widespread, nationally representative household survey data.

    4. Are QUAL and QUANT complements or substitutes? There is considerable conflict among the practitioners of each … does that mean the methods necessarily conflict too??? Importance of being self-reflexive and self-critical

    5. Dimensions of QUAL-QUANT Difference: Be clear about focus of question: (1) Data collection methods (2) Data types (3) Data analysis methods (4) Audience
