CHAPTER 12 Flashcards
according to __________ research data analysis is a process used by the researchers for reducing data to a story and interpreting it to derive insights
lecompte and schensul
process helps in reducing a large chunk of data into smaller fragments, which makes sense
data analysis
what are the data analysis process
data organization
summarization and categorization
data analysis
together contribute to becoming the second known method used for
data reduction. It helps in finding patterns and themes in the data for easy identification and linking.
summarization and categorization
they describe data analysis as a messy, ambiguous, and
time-consuming, but a creative and fascinating process through which a mass of collected data is being
brought to order, structure and meaning.
marshall and rossman
is a process representing the
application of deductive and inductive logic to the research and data analysis
data analysis and interpretation
which often reveal some interesting patterns within the data that are worth
exploring
data mining
what are the types of data in research
qualitative data
qualitative data
categorial data
When the data presented has words and descriptions, then we call it
______. Although you can observe this data, it is subjective and harder to analyze data in
research, especially for comparison.
qualitative data
Any data expressed in numbers of numerical figures are called_____. This type of data can be distinguished into categories, grouped, measured, calculated, or ranked.
quantitative data
are a significant source of collecting numeric data.
outcomes measurement systems
It is data presented in groups. However, an item included in the data cannot belong to more than one group.
categorical data
is a standard method used to analyze categorical data
chi square test
is another widely used word-based technique. In this method, the
researcher tries to understand the concept by analyzing the context in which the participants use a
particular keyword.
keyword context
can be used to reduce the data pile and find patterns in it so that it becomes easier
to connect data with theory.
metaphors
is also one of the highly recommended text analysis methods
used to identify a quality data pattern.
scrunity based technique
is another technique used to split variables so that researchers can find
more coherent descriptions and explanations from the enormous data.
variable partitioning
what are the methods used for data analysis in qualitative research?
content analysis
narrative analysis
discourse analysis
grounded theory
It is widely accepted and the most frequently employed technique for
data analysis in research methodology. It can be used to analyze the documented information from text, images, and sometimes from the physical items. It depends on the research questions to predict when
and where to use this method.
content analysis
When you want to explain why a particular phenomenon happened, then using this for analyzing quality data is the best resort. ________ is applied to
study data about the host of similar cases occurring in different settings. When researchers are using
this method, they might alter explanations or produce new ones until they arrive at some conclusion
grounded theory
This method is used to analyze content gathered from various sources
such as personal interviews, field observation, and surveys. The majority of times, stories, or opinions
shared by people are focused on finding answers to the research questions.
narrative analysis
Similar to narrative analysis, this is used to analyze the interactions with people. Nevertheless, this particular method considers the social context under which or within which the communication between the researcher and respondent takes place. In addition to that, this analysis also focuses on the lifestyle and day-to-day environment while deriving any
conclusion
discourse analysis
is the most relied and widely used global technique for research and data analysis
word base method
is the widely used method under this
technique to differentiate how a specific text is similar or different from each other.
