	Qualitative psychological research - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Qualitative research is sometimes said to have as its goal the understanding of the sample studied, rather than generalizing from the sample to the population.
		That is, qualitative researchers believe in studying phenomena in their entirety rather than concentrating on narrow aspects of the phenomena defined as independent or dependent variables.
		Qualitative psychological research is often treated as the opposite of quantitative research.

	Qualitative research - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the social sciences, qualitative research is a broad term that describes research that focuses on how individuals and groups view and understand the world and construct meaning out of their experiences; it is essentially narrative-oriented.
		In the social sciences, qualitative research is a broad term that describes research that focuses on how individuals and groups view and understand the world and construct meaning out of their experiences.
		Qualitative research methods are sometimes used together with quantitative research methods to gain deeper understanding of the causes of social phenomena, or to help generate questions for further research.

		Qualitative research is research which uses only dichotomous data –; that is, data which can take only the values 0 (zero) and 1 (one).
		If qualitative research has some goal other than estimating parameters or testing null hypotheses, the important issue is what that goal is. Qualitative psychological researchers have described other characteristics of qualitative research which they believe also distinguish it from so-called quantitative psychological research.
		The most common definitions of qualitative psychological research usually treat it as the opposite of quantitative research.

	Evans Report: Qualitative Research Teaching
		Qualitative research has been described as ‘the interpretative study of a specified issue or problem in which the researcher is central to the sense that is made’ (Parker, 1994, p.2).
		What is now commonly termed ‘qualitative research’ can be traced to Dilthey who, in 1883 argued that the human being (especially the psyche) is qualitatively different to the subject matter of the natural sciences, which is physically and materially measurable (Polkinghorne, 1983).
		Given the broad distinction between qualitative and quantitative paradigms, a variety of different epistemologies, which in turn inform an endless variety of practices, are evident within the qualitative research tradition (Hammersley, 1996; Jacobs, 1989; Smith, 1996).

	Division 32 - Humanistic Psychology
		Qualitative research is growing apace in education, nursing, cultural studies, feminist studies, and of course in anthropology and sociology.
		Qualitative research, as I view it, is a systematic effort to find commonalities in lived worlds through study of individuals' observed or reported states or situations.
		Unfortunately, most psychology research is based on 19th Century epistemology, specifically a philosophical stance that knowledge is of material that can be known as it really is. When we speak of human-science psychology we refer to a psychology that acknowledges the life-worlds of both human subjects and researchers.

	Journal of Sex Research: Introduction to behavioral research on the Internet. - book review
		Birnbaum's Introduction to Behavioral Research on the Internet, a textbook of sorts, is good for both the novice student and the more established researcher.
		Of particular interest to sexuality researchers will be Chapter 6, Bailey, Foote and Throckmorton's "Human Sexual Behavior: A Comparison of College and Internet Surveys." We might assume that the Internet would be a particularly useful place for sexuality research, given its anonymous or semi-anonymous nature.
		In other words, the emerging trend seems to be that Internet research does not cure the problems of modern sexuality research, but it does not necessarily present new ones, either.

	Scott Taylor's Research in Ecopsychology
		This seems especially true when compared to the overwhelming volumes of research material which attempts to study the psychology and behavior of people in a vacuum, as it were, that is, strictly within the confines and context of the human-built, social or cultural environment.
		Indeed, the neglect of the psychological study of humans within the larger context of the natural environment, including non-human life forms and landscape, is tantamount to ignoring any other important developmental aspect of psychological life such as, the psycho-social interaction of siblings or other identity forming relationships.
		With this in mind studies such as this one may represent a new trend in psychological insight in that it is an effort to expand the context of psychological inquiry to re-include the entire matrix or web of life in which we find ourselves.

	Participant observation - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Participant observation is a major research strategy which aims to gain a close and intimate familiarity with a given group of individuals (such as a religious, occupational, or deviant group) and their practices through an intensive involvement with people in their natural environment.
		Such research usually involves a range of methods: informal interviews, direct observation, participation in the life of the group, collective discussions, analyses of the personal documents produced within the group, self-analysis, and life-histories.
		It emerged as the principal approach to ethnographic research by anthropologists and relied on the cultivation of personal relationships with local informants as a way of learning about a culture, involving both observing and participating in the social life of a group.
