Sincerely, this is the best UA-cam presentation I ever had on qualitative research. This is very informative, easy to learn for a beginner. It has really assisted me to better understand the qualitative study. Thank you so much, Phil Adu.
You are making a lot of sense. This video allows me to pause and skip back to listen again and I'm happy to be able to do that. I'm attempting to complete this final course, for my degree, from a distance. My Uni is not keeping in touch. I submit work and get no feedback. So here I am trudging on and am so happy to have found this lecture. So Dr. Adu Let's do this!
This presentation is so so well structured, clear and well understood. I was so confused with my research design until I listened to this presentation. Weil done, sir.
Thank you so much for sharing this. This is the most helpful video i have seen on UA-cam. So well explained, I like the patience you gave in explaining and didnt rush through it. Thank you!
Thank you so much, Sir! It was a struggle to understand how to approach the methodology chapter in the thesis until I have seen your presentation! Excellent work! God bless you!
NCDE, thank you very much for the presentations. Am about to start data analysis. I find the video on Coding and Categorizing Data by Philip Adu, Ph.D very enlightening
bro thank u so effin much this really the best presentation to be found on the web..i dnt know why it wasnt the first of suggestions ...i watched too many videos and ddnt understand a thing, but this one is so calm and clear thank you for your effort and time
You're welcome bro! Thank you for your kind words! Also, my new book, 'A Step-by-Step Guide to Qualitative Data Coding' would be very helpful to you. www.routledge.com/A-Step-by-Step-Guide-to-Qualitative-Data-Coding/Adu/p/book/9781138486874
Though this was a year ago, I have to say that I am happy to have found it. If you are still answering questions... I am now working on my qualitative research proposal and I am moving at a snail's pace because I'm not too sure of what I am to do. Is there any information you have that speaks to the proposal phase of the research paper?
Thank you for your amazing presentation. I am a doctoral student at the University of Texas at Austin and my research topic is Campus Carry. My only research question is: Given their historic marginalization in Texas, how do faculty of color at a Texas HBCU make sense of the intersections of campus carry and racial tensions? I planned to take a phenomenology approach. Now, I am wondering if that will work best and if I should change to a case study or something else. What is your advice? I am taking my last class this semester and I am working on chapter three now. I appreciate your support. Thank you, Syneetra
clear and precise presentation. Thank you very much! I didn't notice that there is sampling in qualitative research because we use sampling to generalize for the population. I think generalization is more of quantitative approach. I wonder if you clarify this. Thank you again!
This is very useful. I would be really grateful if the three stances could be clarified for me and it would also help if I could be advised whether I am correct to think that all studies contain all three of these stances. We know some reality. We then delve in to literature to study knowledge and based on our values and beliefs we identify our gaps and conduct our study.
Yes, you could view it that way! All studies are informed by philosophical paradigms and their associated assumptions or stance. In some studies, the paradigm and assumptions are explicit (meaning the researcher describes the underlying philosophical paradigm including assumptions that informs the methodology (research design) of the study). This is mostly done in qualitative studies. For quantitative studies, the researcher, most of the time, makes the paradigm implicit. You’re right! Our background, beliefs, and the paradigm we allied with could influence how we examine knowledge in the literature, identify a gap, and conduct research to fill the gap. Thanks Lakshi! Philip
Thank for sharing this lecture.While I understand how to structure the chapter, I can't seem to find a source to refer to when defining how I chose my paradigm, what is the most relavant source of your lesson?

Thank you, Dr. Adu for this very useful information. I'm working on transitional experiences of newly qualified nurses from classroom to practice. Research questions are related to the participants's expectations, challenges and available support systems during their transition. I have decided on a phenomenological qualitative design but the type of phenomenology is my problem now. Kindly help me out.
Thanks once again, it will also be more useful, if a link to a published qualitative study that reported the presented methodologies was shared. This is to see how it is practically reported in the published articles.

hello I am enjoying this presentation very much. Here is my question. Is it possible or should I say sensible to use a phenomenological- narrative approach from a functionalistic perspective?
It's hard for me to differentiate between purposive and criterion sampling based on the explanation in the video. I've noticed that sources that mention purposive sampling don't mention criterion sampling (and vice versa). Could you explain the difference and where I can find a good source for distinguishing between the two? For example, in my study I specifically am seeking students who are neither high nor low achievers and are from a middle class background. I explain my rationale for doing this and use sources where appropriate, but I need to know the appropriate classification. Thanks!
When it comes to grounded approach, you could work within the following three main assumptions: 1. There are multiple realities 2. Participants' background can influence their views 3. knowledge generated is context bound Also, this presentation on grounded theory would help: www.slideshare.net/kontorphilip/using-grounded-theory-approach-from-start-to-finish
I am concluding that homogeneous sampling and criterion sampling are the same or highly similar. If your criterion is that respondents should have a mental health disorder doesn't selecting them qualify that as homogeneous sampling since they have similar experience i.e mental health?
Did you say in chapter 3 you state the research question? What happens to the research questions in chapter one? I will need some clarification and the rational for this.
As you may know, the essence of writing chapter 3 (at the dissertation proposal level) is to tell readers about specific methodology related decisions and actions we would take in the study. Also, since research questions normally influence the selection of a research approach, participants for the study and data collection and analysis strategies, it is important to remind readers about the questions we plan to address. Lastly, the essence of restating the research questions is to help organize the description of their rationale - explaining to readers the reasons why it is important to address the questions. I hope this helps!

On the issue of Philosophical assumptions what would these look like when doing a grounded approach?
When it comes to grounded approach, you could work within the following three main assumptions:
1. There are multiple realities
2. Participants' background can influence their views
3. knowledge generated is context bound
Also, this presentation on grounded theory would help: www.slideshare.net/kontorphilip/using-grounded-theory-approach-from-start-to-finish
Love from Pakistan. Thank you.
Thank you too!!
I am concluding that homogeneous sampling and criterion sampling are the same or highly similar. If your criterion is that respondents should have a mental health disorder doesn't selecting them qualify that as homogeneous sampling since they have similar experience i.e mental health?
I agree! There are similar. However, participants selected based on criterion sampling may not necessarily have similar demographic characteristics.
Really helpful, thank you for making this public
