Study Notes
Grounded Theory
- Goal is to generate a theory that is grounded in data from participants who have experienced the process
- Researchers do not begin with a theory, but rather allow relevant data to emerge from the area of study
- Data is collected primarily through one-on-one interviews, focus group interviews, and participant observation
Narrative Research
- Study of the life experiences of an individual as told to the researcher or found in documents and archival material
- Participant recalls one or more special events (an "epiphany") in their life
- Involves analyzing data to develop stories and themes, often using life chronology
Case Study
- Focuses on the study of a case, which can be an individual, department, company, program, event, activity, or ongoing process
- Case study researchers collect data through interviews, observations, and documents
- Analyze data to develop a theory, illustrated in a figure, and generate stories about the case
Phenomenological Study
- Seeks to identify, understand, and describe the commonalities of human perception and interpretation of similar experiences
- Focuses on the "essence" or essential characteristic(s) of an experience
- Examples of topics include the experiences of students, teachers, and nurses in specific situations
- Researchers interview individuals in-depth to gain personal insights into the phenomenon being studied
- Aims to understand and describe the experience as it appears to the participants
