In addition to considering alignment, qualitative researchers must also consider the ethical implications of their design choice, including, for example, what their choice means for participant recruitment, procedures, and privacy. Evaluating Research Questions And Qualitative Research Designs
For this Discussion, you will evaluate qualitative research questions in the assigned journal article (Attached)
Lord, S., Després, C., & Ramadier, T. (2011). When mobility makes sense: A qualitative and longitudinal study of the daily mobility of the elderly. Journal of Environmental Psychology, 31(1), 52–61. doi:10.1016/j.jenvp.2010.02.007 Evaluating Research Questions And Qualitative Research Designs
and consider the alignment of theory, problem, purpose, research questions, and design. You will also identify the type of qualitative research design or approach the authors used and explain how it was implemented. Narrative, ethnographic, grounded theory, case study, and phenomenology are examples of types of research designs or approaches used in qualitative research.
Post a critique of the research study in which you:
