Sensemaking In Clinical Qualitative Research, Ronald J. Chenail, Paul V. Maione Mar 1997

Sensemaking In Clinical Qualitative Research, Ronald J. Chenail, Paul V. Maione

The Qualitative Report

When therapists research clinical populations or situations from a qualitative research perspective, their task is different from when researchers conduct their own clinical qualitative studies. With researchers, the study at hand may be their first time "in the field." For researchers in this situation it is easier to use qualitative methods such as grounded theory (Glaser & Strauss, 1967) because there is a "tabula rasa" quality to this initial foray into the "unknown" as a theory from observations is constructed anew. In the case of the therapists-as-qualitative-researchers, clinicians already have made some sort of sense of "the other" by virtue …


Welfare Reform: The Positioning Of Academic Work, Carolyn I. Steele, Cynthia Wallat Mar 1997

Welfare Reform: The Positioning Of Academic Work, Carolyn I. Steele, Cynthia Wallat

The Qualitative Report

Current welfare reform legislation raises a number of questions about how the field of human services will broaden its analytical and educational functions in a context of uncertainty about what welfare will look like in the years to come. How can information and insights about the distribution of welfare dollars and the process of leaving welfare by a heterogeneous population of clients become the basis of contrastive analysis? We describe information sources which can provide a framework for positioning academic work to use longitudinal quantitative tracking sources to lay out qualitative inquiry suggestions for collecting process data that will emerge …


Categorizing, Coding, And Manipulating Qualitative Data Using The Wordperfect® Word Processor, John H. Carney, Joseph F. Joiner, Helen Tragou Mar 1997

Categorizing, Coding, And Manipulating Qualitative Data Using The Wordperfect® Word Processor, John H. Carney, Joseph F. Joiner, Helen Tragou

The Qualitative Report

In this paper, we present a method of categorizing, coding, and sorting/manipulating qualitative (descriptive) data using the capabilities of a commonly-used word processor: WordPerfect®. We explain the process and its development in simple terms for the person who may be familiar with qualitative research and data, but not with computer and/or word processor manipulation of that data. Although we developed the process to suit our methods, it can easily be adapted/evolved to fit different research situations where a method of rapidly handling large amounts of descriptive data is desirable.


The Proposal In Qualitative Research, Anthony W. Heath Mar 1997

The Proposal In Qualitative Research, Anthony W. Heath

The Qualitative Report

The purpose of "qualitative" or "naturalistic" research varies according to the research paradigm, methods, and assumptions. Generally speaking, qualitative researchers attempt to describe and interpret some human phenomenon, often in the words of selected individuals (the informants). These researchers try to be clear about their biases, presuppositions, and interpretations so that others (the stakeholders) can decide what they think about it all. Unlike conventional, positivist research, there is no single accepted outline for a qualitative research proposal or report (Morse, 1991). The generic outline that follows is suggested as a point of departure for qualitative research proposals, and it applies …
