Q

stages of qualitative data analysis

A
  1. Data reduction > organize + reduce data (based on research question)
  2. Data display > make tables, charts, networks, codes (= continual)
  3. Data categorization > group different categories of information
  4. Potential addition: Data contextualization > assembly collected information + external contingencies > identify links + connections

Q

how increase trustworthiness > 5

A
  1. Member validation > let subject criticize findings
  2. Search for negative cases + alternative explanations
  3. Triangulate > combine different sources
  4. Audit trail > key decisions should be explained to be judged
  5. Reflexivity > researcher should critically reflect own role in data collection process and explain potential implications to reader

Q

coding

what, why, how, criteria

A

What: Tags / labels
Why: retrieve + organize data
How: look for patterns + regularities, identify key words + supporting/refuting statements
Criteria: valid + mutually exclusive + exhaustive

Q

stages coding

A 
stage 1. Read + categorize data
	Ask yourself the following questions:
		- What type of behaviors
		- What is the structure
		- What is the frequency
		- What are the causes
		- What are the processes
		- What are the consequences
		- What are strategies

stage 2. Open + axial + selective coding
Level 1: open coding > Identify themes
Themes are generated NOT emerged
Level 2: axial coding > refine + align + categorize themes
Six C’s model: constant comparison of codes and refinement (causes, context, contingencies, consequences, covariance, conditions)
Level 3: selective coding > select + integrate codes
Which codes can be combined within 1 category?
Is there an order? Sequential coding
Can I identify any causal relationships?

• Organization of Coded Data Step 1: Cluster data units into themes (/codes) > group units together into first order themes  Step 2: Repeat by grouping first order themes into second order themes 
	• Qualitative Data Software = QDA
	Why use:
	- Make notes
	- Editing 
	- Memos
	- Coding 
	- Storage
	- Search + retrieval 
	- Data linking
	- Content analysis
	- Data display 
	- Condensed format
	- Conclusion drawing + verification
	- Theory-building
	- Graphic mapping
	- Preparing reports

Q

Critique in qualitative field + goal

A

Critique:

  • Subjective results + anecdotes
  • Lack of precision in measurement
  • Lack of qualitative rigor

partly due to positivist approach

Goal:

  • Establishing trustworthiness research
  • Showing warrant inferences

Q

Lincoln and Guba 1985 regarding trustoworthiness qualitative research

A
  1. Credibility
  2. Transferability
  3. Confirmability
  4. Dependability
    Based on constructive paradigm = subjective = multiple realities
  5. Later added: authenticity
    Assess quality in qualitative research by different philosophical paradigms

Q

How approach trustworthiness Guba (1981):

aspect - scientific - naturalisic - results

A

Truth value - Internal validity - Credibility - About real thing

Applicability - External validity / generalizability - Transferability - Apply to other context

Consistency - Reliability - Dependability - Skewed by method - Neutrality

Objectivity - Confirmability - Depend on researcher

Q

problems qualitative research > 4

A

Problem 1: many interlocking factors > credibility
Does it research the real thing?
- Triangulation > data sources, investigators, perspectives
- Lengthy + intense engagement > biases, perceptions, influence researcher
- Persistent inquiry > essential vs irrelevant qualities
- Member check > check interpretations / findings with focus audience
- Peer debriefing > feedback from researchers
- Structural coherence > test data through constant comparison + explain deviant cases

Problem 2: Behavior is context bound + situational uniqueness > transferability 
Does it really apply to other contexts? 
	- thick description context 
	- collect rich data 
	- purposeful sampling

Problem 3: unstable instruments + conflicting data (affects variation) > dependability
Would researcher with different understandings/social realities generate same results?
- Overlapping methods
- Stepwise replication
- Audit trail
- Dependability audit: peer check data + analysis process

Problem 4: researcher bias + preconceptions influence findings > confirmability

- Confirmability audit > peer check data vs interpretations and interpretations vs data 
- Triangulation
- Practice reflexivity > reflect how ontological (concepts/relationships), epistemological (knowledge),  theoretical (theoretic knowledge) preconceptions influence data
