Tipos de Diseño de Investigación Cualitativa

What is the main goal of exploratory research design?

• To establish causality

• To collect quantitative data

• To confirm existing hypotheses

• To explore and gain insights into a topic or problem.

Explain the difference between descriptive and explanatory research design.

• Descriptive research design predicts outcomes, while explanatory research design observes patterns.

• Descriptive research design explains, while explanatory research design describes.

• Descriptive research design is used for experiments, while explanatory research design is used for surveys.

• Descriptive research design describes, while explanatory research design explains.

Give an example of an ethnographic research design.

• Participant observation in a rural village to study social dynamics.

• Reviewing historical documents to explore past traditions.

• Surveying a large city to analyze cultural practices.

• Conducting interviews with a specific group to understand their beliefs.

What is the purpose of a phenomenological research design?

• To analyze statistical trends in a population

• To explore and understand the lived experiences of individuals

• To predict future outcomes based on past data

• To conduct experiments in a controlled environment

How does a case study research design differ from other types of qualitative research designs?

• A case study research design involves studying a large sample size

• A case study research design focuses on quantitative data analysis

• A case study research design does not require in-depth analysis

• A case study research design differs from other types of qualitative research designs by its focus on detailed analysis of a single case or a small number of cases.

Discuss the key characteristics of a grounded theory research design.

• Key characteristics of a grounded theory research design include constant comparison, theoretical sampling, and the generation of concepts through data analysis.

• Grounded theory research design focuses on quantitative data analysis

• Grounded theory research design does not involve constant comparison

• Grounded theory research design relies solely on preconceived theories

What are the advantages of using an action research design in qualitative research?

• Active involvement of participants, iterative data collection and analysis, immediate implementation of findings

• Passive involvement of participants, one-time data collection, delayed implementation of findings

• Passive involvement of participants, limited data collection, immediate implementation of findings

• Limited participant engagement, non-iterative data analysis, delayed implementation of findings

Explain the concept of narrative research design and its significance in qualitative research.

• Narrative research design limits researchers to objective observations

• Narrative research design focuses solely on statistical data analysis

• Narrative research design is significant in qualitative research as it allows researchers to delve deep into individuals' lived experiences, emotions, and perceptions. It helps in uncovering unique insights, understanding social contexts, and constructing a comprehensive understanding of the researched topic.

• Narrative research design is irrelevant in qualitative research

What is the role of a content analysis research design in qualitative research?

• To systematically analyze and interpret the content of textual, visual, or audio data to identify patterns, themes, and meanings.

• To develop software for data visualization

• To create mathematical models for data analysis

• To conduct experiments and surveys to gather data

Compare and contrast between a cross-sectional and longitudinal research design.

• Cross-sectional research design observes changes over time.

• Cross-sectional research design provides a snapshot view at a single point in time, while longitudinal research design follows the same sample over an extended period to observe changes.

• Longitudinal research design provides a snapshot view at a single point in time.

• Cross-sectional research design follows the same sample over an extended period to observe changes.
