Guide 7: Less Structured Designs A refresher from our overview: To start (my opinion), I don't like the terminology distinction "quantitative-qualitative." It confuses the level of the variables (such as nominal or interval) with the way you conducted your study (e.g., experiment, ethnography), and that is just plain inaccurate. Many historical studies, for example, are highly quantitative. Field studies may gather information on quantitative variables. Furthermore, the level of the variables, whether quantitative or qualitative, also has absolutely nothing to do with causality or internal validity. Yet, we suspect that differences exist among methods called "quantitative" and those called "qualitative." I believe that key is STRUCTURE. Less structured ("qualitative") research is much more fluid. A huge reason for this fluidity is that once you enter "the field," whether this is an organization or a set of records, you will almost certainly encounter many unanticipated events, patterns or sequences. Ethnographies Gleaning

Stepping into software: Student Guide Stepping into software In this section, I've provided a fairly straightforward pathway into software use via a set of suggested steps, with a bundle of hints about how to 'think first' before you take the next step in software. Qualitative research notoriously lacks a clear and fixed order of research processes. So of course does the use of qualitative software. Step 1: Start your projectStep 2: Getting your data 'in'Step 3: Storing information and characteristics of informantsStep 4: Edit and Link - to store what you seeStep 5: Start Coding and Use codingStep 6: Make and manage the categories you needStep 7: Say it in a diagramStep 8: Ask questions about your dataStep 9: Showing patterns Step 10: Out of software and into reports Step 1: Start your project To work in any software package, you create a container that will hold all the necessary items (data records, ideas, information about respondents etc.) What to ask about your project? 1. Think about access. 2. Create a first project!

The placebo effect and a partici The placebo effect and a participatory worldview John Heron, formerly Assistant Director, British Postgraduate Medical Federation, University of London Published in D.Peters (ed), Understanding the Placebo Effect in Complementary Medicine, London, Churchill Livingstone, 2001, pp 189-212. Outline Inquiry paradigms Cartesian anomaly The downfall of positivism A participatory worldview Critical subjectivity and four ways of knowing Methodology: co-operative inquiry The body as a subjective-objective reality The relevance and limits of conventional medical research The relevance of co-operative inquiry A co-operative inquiry project Inquiry paradigms Any method of inquiry presupposes an inquiry paradigm, which is a set of basic beliefs about the nature of reality and how it may be known (Guba and Lincoln, 1994; Heron and Reason, 1997). These are philosophical presuppositions of the method and are not derived from the method.
