Gain insights through discovering meanings
Comprehension of the whole, not causalities
Depth, richness and complexity of a phenomena
Is dependent of the context
Researcher is part of an iterative process, but should not influence the informant

Once upon a time a patient died and went to heaven, but was not certain where he was. Puzzled, he asked a nurse who was standing nearby: “Nurse, am I dead?” The answer she gave him was: “Have you asked your doctor?”
Anonymous, circa 1964

Glaser & Strauss 1965 studied ”awareness of dying”
Practice at the time: people should not be told they were dying The health care ”protected” the patient from knowing
This approach created loneliness and isolation
Kübler-Ross studies 1969 "On Death and Dying” five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and
acceptance
Hospice – enviroment for end-of life care changed

• Quantitative method: facts• Describe, quantify• e.g percentage of men/women, length of in hospital stay,
symptoms
• Find correlations and causalities• Uni- och multivariate analysis• Generalisability – random samling
• Qualitative method: understanding • Partly unknown phenomena• Complex phenomena

Early infant male circumcision (EIMC) is simpler, safer and more cost-effective than adult circumcision.
In sub-Saharan Africa, there are concerns about acceptability of EIMC which could affect uptake.
In 2009 a quantitative survey of 2,746 rural Zimbabweans (aged 18-44) indicated that 60% of women and 58% of men would be willing to have their newborn son circumcised.
Willingness was associated with knowledge of HIV and male circumcision.
This qualitative study was conducted to better understand this issue.

• Directed– Deductive– Theory guide development of categories
• Summative – Identifying and summing of key-words

Thematic analysis is the most common form of analysis in qualitative research
Themes are patterns across data sets that are important to the description of a phenomenon and are associated to a specific research question
Thematic analysis is performed in six phases : familiarization with data generating initial codes searching for themes among codes reviewing themes defining and naming themes producing the final report
![Page 33: Gain insights through discovering meanings … insights through discovering meanings Comprehension of the whole, not causalities Depth, richness and complexity of a phenomena Is dependent](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051800/5ac432847f8b9a5c558ca57e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Flexibility - can be applied across a variety of epistemologies
Well suited to large data sets
Great for multiple researchers.
Interpretation of themes supported by data
Allows for categories to emerge from data
![Page 34: Gain insights through discovering meanings … insights through discovering meanings Comprehension of the whole, not causalities Depth, richness and complexity of a phenomena Is dependent](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051800/5ac432847f8b9a5c558ca57e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Reliability is a concern due to wide variety of interpretations from multiple researchers
Thematic analysis may miss nuanced data
Flexibility makes it difficult to concentrate on what aspect of the data to focus on
Discovery and verification of themes and codes mesh together
Limited interpretive power if analysis excludes theoretical framework

…asks for the very nature of a phenomenon, for that which makes a some”thing” what it is and withoutit could not be what it is

External Participation - lowest degree of involvement. Observing situations on television or videotape.
Passive Participation - researcher is present but does not interact or participate. Role of a bystander or spectator.
Balanced Participation - researcher maintains a balance between being an insider and being an outsider. The researcher observes and participates in some activities, but does not participate fully in all activities.
Active Participation - researcher generally does what others do. While beginning with observation to learn the rules, as they are learned the researcher becomes actively engaged in the activities of the setting.
Total Participation - researcher is a natural participant. Highest level of involvement and usually comes about when the researcher studies something in which he or she is already a natural participant.

• Structuring & standardisation• Fixed questions, guide or one open question• Avoid directed, imprecise and general questions• Be open and let the informant have the initiative initially,
be more guiding and reflecting at the end
• Follow up questions• To clarify, develop, deepen
• Can you tell me more about…• Can you explain how you mean…• Previously you said that...
• Be “nagging” at the end...

The findings are “worth paying attention to” (Lincoln & Guba, 1985, p.290).
Four issues of trustworthiness: Credibility - confidence in the 'truth' of the findings Transferability - showing that the findings are applicable in other contexts Dependability - showing that the findings are valid, consistent and could be
repeated Confirmability - a degree of neutrality or the extent to which the findings of a
study are shaped by the respondents and not researcher bias

In qualitative method the subjective judgement of the researcher is considered an asset. Subjectivity is essential for the understanding of human experience.Polit, D. F. Beck, C. T. Nursing Research. 8th Ed, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2008
![Page 76: Gain insights through discovering meanings … insights through discovering meanings Comprehension of the whole, not causalities Depth, richness and complexity of a phenomena Is dependent](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051800/5ac432847f8b9a5c558ca57e/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Confirmability is a measure of how well the findings are supported by the data collected. (Lincoln & Guba, 1985)
In-depth methodological description to allow results to be scrutinised
Data audit of decisions made and procedures described Admission of researcher preunderstanding, beliefs and
assumptions Triangulation to prevent investigator bias Testing rival explanations Negative cases Recognition of limitations

Credibility is an evaluation of whether or not the research findings represent a “credible” conceptual interpretation of the data drawn from the participants’ original data (Lincoln & Guba, 1985)
Quality of the research “rigour” Sampling
Data collection
Interviews, observation
Tape recording, transcripts

To motivate the interpretation of the whole the meaning of the parts need to be interpreted
The interpretation of the parts has to be in conjunction with the whole.

Transferability is the degree to which the findings of this inquiry can apply or transfer beyond the project (Lincoln & Guba, 1985)
“Generalisability”
Comparison of sample to demographic data
Theoretical or purposive sampling
Rich descriptions
Describe in detail the research context and the assumptions that were central to the research.
The person who wishes to "transfer" the results to a different context is then responsible for making the judgment of how sensible the transfer is
![Page 81: Gain insights through discovering meanings … insights through discovering meanings Comprehension of the whole, not causalities Depth, richness and complexity of a phenomena Is dependent](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051800/5ac432847f8b9a5c558ca57e/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Dependability is an assessment of the quality of the integrated processes of data collection, data analysis, and theory generation (Lincoln & Guba, 1985)
The degree to which data change over time and
alterations made in the researcher’s decisions during the analysisprocess. Evaluating inconsistency during data collection and analysis.

To develop a checklist for explicit and comprehensive reporting of qualitative studies (indepth interviews and focus groups).
Comprehensive search in Cochrane, Medline, CINAHL, systematic reviews of qualitative studies, author or reviewer guidelines of major medical journals and reference lists of relevant publications for existing checklists used to assess qualitative studies.
Seventy-six items from 22 checklists were condensed into a comprehensive checklist with 32 items into three domains: (i) research team and reflexivity, (ii) study design and (iii) data analysis and reporting.
