In qualitative health research, investigators want to …

• State your objective(s) and research question(s)? For example: – Objective: to explore/to understand the perceptions
about xy disease among newcomer families from … countries
– Research question: What are the prevailing values and beliefs related xy disease that shape the attitude and behaviours of newcomer families from…?

• Use methods based on your research question (ethnography, grounded theory, case study, descriptive qualitative)
Methods
![Page 16: WCHRI Clinical Research Seed Grant Dr. Lorin Charlton Tatjana Alvadj Dory Sample](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e365503460f94b25856/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Explain your choice of data collection methods (interviews, focus groups, observations, documents)– Population under the study– Sample size (usually small!)– Sampling technique (usually purposeful) – Access and recruitment
Data collection
![Page 17: WCHRI Clinical Research Seed Grant Dr. Lorin Charlton Tatjana Alvadj Dory Sample](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e365503460f94b25856/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Describe the analysis process: – audio recording; transcription; field notes;
software for data management; analysis method • Rigour/trustworthiness: credibility,
transferability, dependability, conformability (Lincoln and Guba, 1985)
• Ethics: risks related to the participants, topic, relationship, researcher (Mayan, 2009)

• Qualitative research is energy/time consuming for all involved!– Qualitative designs are “emergent” rather than
fixed (Morse, 1994)– Recruitment and data collection can be very slow– Research is an interpretative process that takes
time– Debriefing is important for all involved!
Friendly warnings!
![Page 20: WCHRI Clinical Research Seed Grant Dr. Lorin Charlton Tatjana Alvadj Dory Sample](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e365503460f94b25856/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Mistakes to avoid:– No hypothesis identified – what is the research
question?– Feasibility – Unclear methodology – controls?– Part of a larger study – not really seed funding– Clinical translation unclear
