Qualitative Research
TWO MAJOR PARADIGMS
• Quantitative Research
• Logical positivism
1
• Qualitative Research
• Phenomenological research
2
Qualitative research is often described by a
negative.
That is, it is not quantitative.
Quantitative research is based on
the logical-positive paradigm,
while qualitative research is based
on naturalistic inquiry and often
describes social phenomenon
What does a Qualitative Research mean?
Qualitative research is concerned with developing
explanations of social phenomena. That is to
say , it aims to help us to understand the world
in which we live and to understand why things
are the way they are.
What does a Qualitative Research mean?
I
In the qualitative research following questions are
asked.
Why people behave the way they do?
How opinions and attitudes are formed?
How people are affected by the events that
go on around them?
How and why cultures have developed in
the way they have?
The differences between social groups why? How? In
what way?
What does a Qualitative Research mean?
Quantitative research, on the other hand,
is more concerned with questions about:
How much? How many? How often? To
what extent?
What does Quantitative Research mean?
Quantitative Research Qualitative Research
It is deductive in nature It is inductive in nature
Hypotheses are tested Hypotheses may not be put
forth
Replication is possible Replication may not be
possible
Generalization is
important
Generalization may not be
possible
Researcher is neutral Researcher is involved
Difference between qualitative & quantitative research
Quantitative Research Qualitative Research
Data are numerical(hard) Data are textual, sounds may be
included
External facts are studied Researcher becomes the part of the
study
Informer is the key Researcher is the key
Outcome is important Outcome is not important.
External validity is important External validity is not important
Data may be analyzed by
external agency
Researcher analyzes the data & he
becomes part of the facts.
Quantitative Research Qualitative Research
Tools –All the different types
of tools can be used
Observation & interview are
the techniques used.
Data based conclusions are
drawn objectively
Contextual behaviour is
analyzed by researcher’s own
view.
Probabilistic Opportunative.
Sample size should be proper
& sample should be selected
randomly
Sample may be small,
incidental or purposive
Types of qualitative research
Grounded theory
Phenomenology
Short term
observation
Case study
Ethnography
Kinesics (nonverbal
communication)
Narrative inquiry
4. Characteristics of qualitative research

Maxwell’s five component model for conducting
a qualitative research
What alternative explanations may account for the
findings?
What will the researcher actually do?
What does the researcher want to understand at the
conclusion of the study
What is the context in which the study is being contemplated?
What are the goals of the study?
1.Design Strategies-

systems
Analysis strategy
Unique
case
orientation
Inductive
analysis &
creative
synthesis
Holistic
perspective
Context
sensitivity
Voice, perspective&
reflexivity
Strengths
Data based on
the participants’
own categories
of meaning.
Useful for
studying a
limited number
of cases in
depth.
Can conduct
cross-case
comparisons
and analysis.
Provides
individual
case
information.
The
researcher
can study
dynamic
processes.
Can describe rich
detail
phenomena as
they are situated
and embedded
in local contexts.

The
researcher can
study dynamic
processes.
The researcher can
use the primarily
qualitative method
of grounded theory
to inductively
generate a tentative,
explanatory theory
about a
phenomenon.
Useful for studying a limited number of cases in depth.
Useful for studying a limited number of cases in depth.
Strengths
The researcher
Identifies
contextual and
setting factors
as they relate
to the
phenomenon
Can determine
how
participants
interpret
constructs.
(e.g., self-
esteem, IQ)
Data are
usually
collected
in
naturalistic
settings in
qualitative
research.
Qualitative
approaches are
responsive to
local situations,
conditions, and
stakeholders’
needs.
Qualitative
researchers are
responsive to
changes during the
conduct of a
study and may
shift the focus.
Qualitative data
lend
themselves
to exploring
how and
why
phenomena
occur.
One can use an
important
case to vividly
demonstrate a
phenomenon.
Idiographic
causation
is
recorded.
Weaknesses of the qualitative research.
Knowledge produced
might not generalize to
other people or other
settings. (i.e., findings)
Might be unique to the
relatively few people
included in the research
study).
It is difficult to make
quantitative
predictions.
It is more difficult to test
hypotheses and theories
with large participant
pools.
It might have lower
credibility with some
administrators and
commissioners of programs.
Weaknesses
It generally takes more time to
collect the data as compared
to quantitative research.
Data analysis is often
time consuming.
The results are more
easily influenced by the
researcher’s personal
biases
Discovering the level of
difficulty of presentation

Examples of Content Analysis-
A study of identifying
the literary style,
concepts, or beliefs of a
writer.

  • 2. TWO MAJOR PARADIGMS • Quantitative Research • Logical positivism 1 • Qualitative Research • Phenomenological research 2
  • 3. Qualitative research is often described by a negative. That is, it is not quantitative. Quantitative research is based on the logical-positive paradigm, while qualitative research is based on naturalistic inquiry and often describes social phenomenon What does a Qualitative Research mean?
  • 4. Qualitative research is concerned with developing explanations of social phenomena. That is to say , it aims to help us to understand the world in which we live and to understand why things are the way they are. What does a Qualitative Research mean?
  • 5. I In the qualitative research following questions are asked. Why people behave the way they do? How opinions and attitudes are formed?

  • 6. Quantitative research, on the other hand, is more concerned with questions about: How much? How many? How often? To what extent? What does Quantitative Research mean?
  • 7. Quantitative Research Qualitative Research It is deductive in nature It is inductive in nature Hypotheses are tested Hypotheses may not be put forth Replication is possible Replication may not be possible Generalization is important Generalization may not be possible Researcher is neutral Researcher is involved Difference between qualitative & quantitative research
  • 8. Quantitative Research Qualitative Research Data are numerical(hard) Data are textual, sounds may be included External facts are studied Researcher becomes the part of the study Informer is the key Researcher is the key Outcome is important Outcome is not important. External validity is important External validity is not important Data may be analyzed by external agency Researcher analyzes the data & he becomes part of the facts.
  • 9. Quantitative Research Qualitative Research Tools –All the different types of tools can be used Observation & interview are the techniques used. Data based conclusions are drawn objectively Contextual behaviour is analyzed by researcher’s own view. Probabilistic Opportunative. Sample size should be proper & sample should be selected randomly Sample may be small, incidental or purposive

  • 13. Tools used in the data collection Qualitative Data Collection Tools Documents Observation Interview Unstructured Structured Group Personal Participatory- Field notes Non participatory- field notes Anecdotal record Other
  • 14. Maxwell’s five component model for conducting a qualitative research What alternative explanations may account for the findings? What will the researcher actually do? What does the researcher want to understand at the conclusion of the study What is the context in which the study is being contemplated? What are the goals of the study?
  • 18. Strengths Data based on the participants’ own categories of meaning. Useful for studying a limited number of cases in depth. Can conduct cross-case comparisons and analysis. Provides individual case information. The researcher can study dynamic processes. Can describe rich detail phenomena as they are situated and embedded in local contexts.  The researcher can study dynamic processes. The researcher can use the primarily qualitative method of grounded theory to inductively generate a tentative, explanatory theory about a phenomenon. Useful for studying a limited number of cases in depth. Useful for studying a limited number of cases in depth.
  • 19. Strengths The researcher Identifies contextual and setting factors as they relate to the phenomenon Can determine how participants interpret constructs. (e.g., self- esteem, IQ) Data are usually collected in naturalistic settings in qualitative research. Qualitative approaches are responsive to local situations, conditions, and stakeholders’ needs. Qualitative researchers are responsive to changes during the conduct of a study and may shift the focus. Qualitative data lend themselves to exploring how and why phenomena occur. One can use an important case to vividly demonstrate a phenomenon. Idiographic causation is recorded.
  • 20. Weaknesses of the qualitative research. Knowledge produced might not generalize to other people or other settings. (i.e., findings) Might be unique to the relatively few people included in the research study). It is difficult to make quantitative predictions. It is more difficult to test hypotheses and theories with large participant pools. It might have lower credibility with some administrators and commissioners of programs. Weaknesses It generally takes more time to collect the data as compared to quantitative research. Data analysis is often time consuming. The results are more easily influenced by the researcher’s personal biases
