Qualitative Proposal

This study was a qualitative descriptive exploratory study, which Grove, Burns and Gray (2013, p. 27) define as being of use when researchers seek to understand a problem by describing it and promoting further understanding. Qualitative research aims to investigate a phenomenon or analyse perspectives, this method often utilises a smaller study population but yields data rich in human experience (Schira, 2009, p.77-78). An example of this qualitative paradigm is the researcher’s use of interviews as a data collection method, and smaller sample size.

Case study was research strategy adopted for this study. It is one of the types of qualitative research study (Creswell, 1998). According to Rubin and Babbie (2013) which view case study as a particular examination of phenomenon. In this study case study explore the influence e-resources has on the professional development and classroom practices of beginner teachers and providing a detailed information through multiple source of data collection methods such as semi-structured interview, observation, data analysis and research journal.However,Creswell,2007 highlighted that case study is a qualitative approach that explore bounded system of phenomenon over time. More so, Yin (2009) validates that case study is an empirical

In the first article chosen, “Why are Nurses Leaving? Findings From an Initial Qualitative Study on Nursing Attrition,” the research method used was qualitative. The specific type of research design used was phenomenology. The participants were interviewed about their person experience of what it was like working as a registered nurse. The research question for this study was, “What is the experience of RNs who leave clinical nursing?” The sample is registered nurses (RN) with a minimum of 1 year of clinical practice and no clinical practice in the last 6 months. The sample size was ten, which were a majority of females (80%),

The completed analysis should be 1,000-1,250 words and should connect to your identified practice problem of interest.

The stated purpose of the article was to evaluate not only pain control in adolescents who underwent a spinal fusion, but also the emotional/psychological and physical affect it had on them. Another stated purpose was to uncover the pre-operation education and preparedness for the surgery. Is it enough to prepare

In this assignment, various research with regards to different agendas will be discussed and broken down into the approaches that were conducted and the results of these researches. The first study that will be analyzed will be; Factors Involved in Recovery from Schizophrenia: A Qualitative study of Thai Mental Health Nurses. The authors for this research study were; Kaewprom, Chettha; Curtis, Janette; Deane, Frank P. The main point of this study was to investigate international methods, such as those conducted in Thailand and compare and contrast them with American psychiatric approaches in order to improve the

This study was a qualitative study utilizing the ecological framework and the CBPR method. These approaches were appropriate for the Hmong population for a number of reasons. First and foremost, the Hmong are patrilineal and patriarchal. The current literature cited in this article reports that Hmong women have a higher risk for health problems due to low socioeconomic status, deficiency of education, low English proficiency, refusal of the biomedical model of preventative care, and gender roles in Hmong culture. These factors demonstrate that there are many influences on health seeking behaviors and the ecological framework was an appropriate framework utilized for this study.

The total amount of surveys to be analyzed was 110, and it was decided to break up each question as much as possible in order to make it easier to analyze.

This study will be quantitative in nature. It will be an observational retrospective cohort study using an existing National VA database to examine differences in health service utilization by gender for U.S. veterans diagnosed with AKI while hospitalized at Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs). Differences in short-term outcomes, such as length of inpatient stay and inpatient mortality, by gender, will also be examined. This study will also thoroughly describe study population of hospitalized VA patients diagnosed with AKI.

A qualitative study delves into a social or human problem in hopes to formulate a theory about that phenomenon. Paterson et al. (2005) performed a qualitative study that formulated a theory on how male nursing students learn to care. The researchers discovered how and what aspects perpetuated males to learn to care for patients empathetically while in nursing school. This paper will critique the above study noted and provide rationales.

Following a critical overview of the literature, this chapter outlines the research methodology. It will provide a justification for a qualitative methodological approach and specification of methods employed. Highlighting the appropriateness of interviews and focus groups in relation to the methodology and overall research. It will also provide recognition of their relative strengths and limitations.

The research method used to study cognitive beliefs about homosexuality is related to qualitative type of research. I have conducted a qualitative analysis in order to provide deeper insight into the people definition of homosexuality. The data were collected through semi-structured, qualitative individual interviews with 9 participant who had various demographic characteristics. Site selection and recruitment of my sample were guided my assessment of the requirements for addressing the theoretical agenda. The qualitative interview analysis is important because it is provides an understanding of the patterns of support and opposition and what homosexuality means to people in the social and cultural environment in which they reside. The approach

The feelings of rejection and withdrawal are heightened that builds a complex dynamic between couples. I found normalizing and supporting subsystems through compartmentalizing very challenging to implement as a therapist. Children have low level of threshold to stress and may be struggling with their personal developmental issues; therefore, creating a structure of acceptance and empathy may involve many demanding therapeutic sessions. Metaphorically, as also discussed in the classroom, this scenario is like an undercurrent that may sweep off the therapist with clients. Consequently, the structure of a treatment may fall apart, and therapy may be

Integration is the stage(s) where the quantitative and qualitative methods are mixed or integrated in the research process (Greene, Caracelli, & Graham, 1989; Tashakkori & Teddlie, 1998; Creswell et al., 2003). Mixing can occur at the beginning stage of the study when the researcher is formulating the quantitative and qualitative research (Teddlie & Tashakkori, 2003), and integration can be done at the interpretation stage of the quantitative and qualitative results (Onwuegbuzie & Teddlie, 2003). The quantitative and qualitative phases are connected (Hanson et al., 2005) after data analysis in the first phase to guide the data collection in the second phase. For the sequential explanatory study, I will connect the quantitative and qualitative phase during the intermediate stage in the research process. That is, I will select participants for the qualitative phone interview from those who responded to the survey in the first phase (Creswell et al., 2003).
