Assumptions of Qualitative Research Methods
Introduction. Many characteristics make up the collective term of qualitative research, Methods used specify a certain framework in which researchers operate, Within this framework, there are two major assumptions in which I believe take precedence, Inductive reasoning and topic specificity are the two characteristics that I believe define ...

These beliefs have
Planning Qualitative Research: Design and Decision Making for New
While many books and articles guide various qualitative research methods and analyses, there is currently no concise resource that explains and differentiates among the most common qualitative approaches. We believe novice qualitative researchers, students planning the design of a qualitative study or taking an introductory qualitative research course, and faculty teaching such courses can ...
5.1 Assumptions underlying research
As we discussed in Chapter 1, researchers seeking objective truth (one of the philosophical foundations at the bottom of Figure 5.1) often employ quantitative methods (one of the methods at the top of Figure 5.1). Similarly, researchers seeking subjective truths (again, at the bottom of Figure 5.1) often employ qualitative methods (at the top ...
Unpacking Assumptions in Research Synthesis: A Critical Construct
The identification of underlying assumptions in the research synthesis process is not a warrant for "anything-goes" relativism or a call to increase objectivity. Rather it supports the position that methodological decisions about what research designs to include in a research synthesis, and constructs that inform and emanate from those ...
How to use and assess qualitative research methods
Abstract. This paper aims to provide an overview of the use and assessment of qualitative research methods in the health sciences. Qualitative research can be defined as the study of the nature of phenomena and is especially appropriate for answering questions of why something is (not) observed, assessing complex multi-component interventions ...
Qualitative Research: Getting Started
Qualitative research was historically employed in fields such as sociology, ... and assumptions, so that readers can better understand the particular researcher. Reflexivity describes the processes whereby the act of engaging in research actually affects the process being studied, calling into question the notion of "detached objectivity". ...
PDF Introduction to Qualitative Research Methodology
assumptions. These assumptions, in turn, shape the choice of methods that generate what is considered valid data. Research of any type is a cyclical rather than a linear process; methodological choices and methods themselves are not neutral but are always infl uenced by the assumptions you make about your subject of study.

Ontological Assumptions and Generalizations in Qualitative (Audience
The aim of this article is to discuss qualitative research and focus on ontological assumptions behind our methodological arguments and choices. Generalization, often seen as the Achilles heel of qualitative research, is also discussed and its relation to ontological positions clarified.
PDF Philosophical Assumptions
In qualitative research, interviewing is one of the most frequently used methods when generating data. Other methods could include, for example, observation, diaries, the generation of visual images or other forms of text. In this book we will cover using qualitative interviewing as a 'method' - a means of collecting and analysing data.
Exploring the Four Core Philosophical Assumptions in Qualitative Research
The four underlying philosophical approaches when using qualitative research are ontological, epistemological, axiological, and methodological (Creswell & Poth, 2018). Depending on the type of research, any assumption can be employed and utilized. The ontological assumption can be used when the aim is to analyze multiple views of reality ...
Why Are Assumptions Important?
Assumptions are the foci for any theory and thus any paradigm. It is important to make assumptions explicit and to make a sufficient number of assumptions to describe the phenomenon at hand. Explication of assumptions is even more crucial in research methods used to test the theories. As Mitroff and Bonoma (Evaluation quarterly 2:235-60, 1978 ...
Criteria for Good Qualitative Research: A Comprehensive Review
This review aims to synthesize a published set of evaluative criteria for good qualitative research. The aim is to shed light on existing standards for assessing the rigor of qualitative research encompassing a range of epistemological and ontological standpoints. Using a systematic search strategy, published journal articles that deliberate criteria for rigorous research were identified. Then ...
Understanding Assumptions and How to Write Them in a Study
ABSTRACT. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an understanding of how to write the assumptions in a dissertation study. There seems to be some confusion with novice researchers and doctoral students. This confusion over research assumptions has become an increasingly big problem for both experienced and novice researchers.

Qualitative Research Paradigm
The Assumptions of Qualitative Designs. Qualitative researchers are concerned primarily with process, rather than outcomes or products.; Qualitative researchers are interested in meaning: how people make sense of their lives, experiences, and their structures of the world.; The qualitative researcher is the primary instrument for data collection and analysis.
Questioning established qualitative methods and assumptions

They concern issues of consensus, intersubjective confirmation, and epistemic privilege; the use of member checking as an evaluation of methodological integrity; the role of replication in qualitative methods; and the contributions of ...
What Is Qualitative Research?
Qualitative research is used to understand how people experience the world. While there are many approaches to qualitative research, they tend to be flexible and focus on retaining rich meaning when interpreting data. Common approaches include grounded theory, ethnography, action research, phenomenological research, and narrative research.
Questioning Assumptions
However, the evidence is that participation in undergraduate research prevents loss rather than increasing interest (Schultz et al., 2011). A different approach to examining assumptions is to begin with data and then ask scientists what the data might mean. In the following section, we share one example of this approach.
Assumptions, Making Recommendations, and Dissemination
As a beginning nursing student, it is fairly reasonable and expected to insert one's own experiences and assumptions into the published research. It's easy to "not" see results objectively. This is where the phrase, "Never make assumptions without seeking clarification" comes into play.
The Central Role of Theory in Qualitative Research
There are at least three primary applications of theory in qualitative research: (1) theory of research paradigm and method (Glesne, 2011), (2) theory building as a result of data collection (Jaccard & Jacoby, 2010), and (3) theory as a framework to guide the study (Anfara & Mertz, 2015). Differentiation and clarification between these ...

Revisiting Bias in Qualitative Research: Reflections on Its
Qualitative research is perhaps often viewed as being at the bottom of the hierarchy of evidence for informing (and thus having impact on) health policy and practice, a hierarchy predicated on level of bias. Seeing "bias" as a problem to be managed during the process and reporting of qualitative research may be a way of trying to establish ...
