# Meta-Synthesis Guide
A skill for conducting qualitative meta-synthesis -- the systematic integration of findings across multiple qualitative studies. Covers meta-ethnography (Noblit & Hare), thematic synthesis (Thomas & Harden), framework synthesis, and quality appraisal of qualitative studies.
## What Is Qualitative Meta-Synthesis?
### Overview
```
Meta-synthesis is to qualitative research what meta-analysis
is to quantitative research -- it systematically combines
findings from multiple studies to produce higher-order
interpretations.
