Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Adler (2003) examined the relationship of foreign language study and SAT Verbal scores. Additionally, the study explored whether or not the number of years of foreign language study had an impact on SAT verbal scores. The students involved were female seniors at a private high school in suburban Maryland. It was hypothesized that there would be no significant effect that the choice of foreign language study has on the verbal score achieved on the SAT. This hypothesis was rejected because there was a significant difference in SAT Verbal averages among the students of three different foreign languages. French foreign language students outperformed Spanish and Latin foreign language students.

Action Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Bisogni, et. al. (2005) studied the conceptual understanding of how management of food and eating is linked to life course events and experiences.

Food choice capacity represented participants' confidence in meeting their standards for food and eating given their food management skills and circumstances.

Participants linked strong food management skills with high levels of food choice capacity, except in the case of extreme financial circumstances or the absence of strong standards.

Narrative Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Bullington (2005) investigated how older people (60+) experience the ageing body and how these experiences affect aged peoples sense of identity. Explorative, open ended, interviews were conducted with 13 respondents between the ages of 63 and 82, recruited from a retired peoples organization, Church organizations, and from the working population. The results showed that generally the experience of the ageing body has to do with a changed life world, reactions to this change in terms of body and self, and finding ways to feel at home in this changed situation.

Phenomenological Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Daly (in Nieswiadomy, 2008) studied the lived experiences of mothers of suicidal adolescents. She contended that, unfortunately, the mothers experience is often the hidden dimension in the family. Unstructured interviews were conducted with 6 mothers living with suicidal adolescents. Six themes were identified: failure as a good mother, the ultimate rejection, feeling alone in the struggle, helplessness and powerlessness in the struggle, cautious parenting, and keeping an emotional distance.

Phenomenological Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Dunckley, Aspinal, Addington-Hall, Hughes, & Higginson (in Nieswiadomy, 2008) used the staff in one hospice and one nursing home setting in London as their research data. The purpose of the study was to identify facilitators and barriers to the use of the Palliative Care Outcome Scale (POS). Staff took part in semi-structured interviews, completed diaries, and participated in monthly meetings to give their opinions of what they thought were the facilitators and barriers to the implementation of the POS.

Action Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Edwards (2007) explored the process of college mens gender identity development. In order to try to meet these expectations and be seen as men, participants described putting on a performance that was like wearing a mask or putting my man face on. This process included learning societal expectations of them as men, as well as specific cultural group expectations. The men in this study were all aware that they did not neatly fit behind the mask, either as a result of personal characteristics or social identities. Their resulting insecurities led them to wearing the mask both consciously and unconsciously so that they would be seen as men by society.

Grounded Theory Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Gance-Cleveland (in Nieswiadomy, 2008) examined the features, critical attributes, processes, and benefits of school based support groups for adolescents with an addicted parent. Participant observations were conducted weekly at two high schools over one semester. Interviews were conducted with program administrators, school administrators, group co-facilitators, and participants. School-based support group participation was found to enhance self-knowledge and led to self-care and self-healing.

Ethnographic Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Godina (2004) explored the contradictory literacy practices of 10 high school students of Mexican background from the rural Midwest. Literacy is investigated through English and Spanish in a sociocultural context. Findings reveal how Mexican-background students demonstrate different literacy practices in their homes and communities than those acknowledged at school. Results indicate that the lost opportunities for effective literacy learning at school ignored the realistic responsibilities and potential of the Mexican-background students.

Ethnographic Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Harmon (in Nieswiadomy, 2008) collected data from 8 nurses who were employed between 1951 and 1965 in a Virginia state hospital. These nurses were now retired and had between 12 and 46 years of psychiatric nursing experience. The researcher wanted to describe the experiences of these nurses who practiced in a state mental hospital before and during the introduction of antipsychotic medications. They expressed resignation and frustration while trying to provide care despite crowded wards and inadequate personnel and supplies. The nurses indicated that they focused on the patients body instead of on the patients mind. The camaraderie they experienced with other nurses helped them continue in their positions, despite what they felt to be a thankless job.

Narrative Research Correct

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples. Williams and Irurita (in Nieswiadomy, 2008) studied the personal control and emotional comfort of hospitalized patients. Interviews were conducted with 40 patients, and 75 hours of field observations were conducted. The basic psychological process identified by the researchers was labeled optimizing personal control to facilitate emotional comfort. Personal control referred to the ability of patients to influence their environment; emotional comfort was defined as a state of relaxation that affected the physical status of the patient. Personal control was found to be a central feature of emotional comfort.
