Beyond Words: Using Nonverbal Communication Data in Research to Enhance Thick Description and Interpretation (2013, methodology): “Because multiple approaches to answering research questions expand the choices of the researcher (Johnson & Christensen, 2010; Johnson & Onwuegbuzie, 2004; Teddlie & Tashakkori, 2009), the combination of quantitative and qualitative research elements was adopted for this case study—specifically, wha”
The Why and How of the Integrative Review (2020, background): “…focus on the importance of randomization, positive and negative controls, and blinding; those trained in qualitative methods may not have generalizability in focus (Stake, 2005); and still others assume most complex phenomena are not understandable without computational simulation (Sterman, 2000).”
Meta-Synthesis of Qualitative Case Studies (2012, background): “…synthesis, qualitative case study research, theory building Case study research enables the study of contemporary organizational phenomena in a real-life setting with an in-depth, holistic study of few or single cases (e.g., Flyvbjerg, 2011; Hammersley & Gomm, 2002; Stake, 2005; Yin, 2009).”

A case study in public child welfare: county-level practices that address racial disparity in foster care placement (2019, neutral): “Though, even with small numbers within a sample, those numbers are examples of a broader group, and so transferability should not be rejected (Stake, 2005).”

Student engagement: students' and teachers' perceptions (2014, neutral): “In this article our focus shifts to combining data from these nine institutions into a collective case study, what Stake (2008) calls a ‘functioning specific’ or ‘bounded system’ (pp. 119–120).”
Paradoxes of authentic leadership: Leader identity struggles (2014, background): “This facilitates the possibility of using what Stake (2005) calls ‘natural generalisation’, i.e. using personal, but socially and reflexively mediated experiences, in order to draw out generalisable interpretation from case studies.”
An Exemplar for Teaching and Learning Qualitative Research (2012, methodology): ““If a case study design is used, the type of case study (i.e., instrumental, intrinsic, collective/multiple; Stake, 2005; Yin, 2003) is identified and described clearly””
Studying Triggers for Interest and Engagement Using Observational Methods (2015, background): “Thus, analyses were undertaken at the level of the group as a whole, rather than for each individual participant (see Stake, 2005).”

Love and enjoyment in context: four case studies of adolescent EFL learners (2018, neutral): “The overall methodological approach used is a multiple case study, which has been defined as several cases that “may be studied jointly in order to investigate a phenomenon, population, or general condition” (Stake, 2005, p. 445).”
