What is qualitative research? Qualitative research is a type of scientific research. In general terms, scientific
research consists of an investigation that:
1. Seeks answers to a question
2. Systematically uses a predefined set of procedures to answer the question.
3. Collects evidence
4. Produces findings that were not determined in advance.
5. Produce findings that are applicable beyond the immediate boundaries of the
study.
Additionally, it seeks to understand a given research problem or topic rom the
perspectives of the local population it involves. Qualitative research is especially
effective in obtaining culturally specific information about the values, opinion,
behaviors, and social contexts of particular populations.
What can we learn from qualitative research? The strength of qualitative research is its ability to provide complex textual
descriptions of how people experience a given research issue. It provides
information about the "human" side of an issue- that is, the often contradictory
behaviors, beliefs, opinions, emotions, and relationships of individuals.
Qualitative methods are also effective identifying intangible factors, such as
social norms, socioeconomic status, gender roles, ethnicity, and religion, whose
role in research issue may not be readily apparent.
