HLTB15H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Operational Definition
Document Summary
Stages of interview research qualitative research repetitive talking. Unstructured just a research question and a researcher and they just interact: limit the number of interviewers involved in and say very little. Keeps the transferability/transparency true: open ended q"s. Tell me about your kids instead of how many kids you have. The information is richer and capable of limiting the bias by being neutral: not how bad was it nor was it good/ but like tell me about your feeling. Semi- structured several q"s (not too many- people can go in tangents) Prepared in advance to tailor the next questions. Not in the same order: prompts help keep the communication flow. Mm hmm vs can you give me an example? (asking both positive and. Negative) we don"t want to interpret a negative/positive bias from them. Silences should be paid attention to/be aware and modify the interview guide.
