Positionality statements should be included to make the work more robust and relevant to the work you're reporting (ex: reporting racial background if discussing racialized experiences).

How do you critically examine the participants without compromising your relationship with them?

It does not always need to be compared to quantitative research.

Is qual data worth reporting if you can't describe the story in an interesting way?

I have gained a better understanding of the different types of qualitative research (i.e., phenomenology, case study, ethnographic) and I have begun to connect epistemic concepts to qualitative research design.

I am still confused about how to design good study/interview questions to answer the research questions better

how can we collect data from things on social media (youtube, blog posts, online content)? Do we need consent from the person posting it?

What if we find something and it is conflictive with what participants of the study thought or felt (disagreements with stakeholders about the interpretation of the findings)?

In order to avoid researcher bias (unsure if this is the real word here), it is important to validate the data analysis and triangulate the data, however, it seems to be difficult to do in a partner/group setting due to differing time availability - how do you avoid researcher bias that does not require doing it in sync with someone else

Qual research is about perceptions and manifestations as opposed to specific effects.

As a new qualitative researcher, how do we decide what to take and leave out of people's criticisms. How do we stay true to our own voice?

Telling a story through other people's experiences. Capturing emerging themes from qualitative data. Open-ended questions.

Qualitative research is about understanding the how/process as opposed to the what (the aim of quant research).

How essential is triangulation/multiple sources in qualitative research?

Qualitative research is flexible— there are not rigid rules and methods as with quantitative research (e.g., determining a sufficient sample size). Research questions can evolve as the study evolves, and validity is not a primary goal of the research (instead, the focus is on the author demonstrating their trustworthiness/credibility). Qualitative research centers process (e.g., lived experiences of individuals) whereas quantitative research tends to focus more on results (e.g., learning outcomes).

- The questions are more about the how and why
- Captures more depth than breadth
- descriptive but in words not in numbers
- feels more human
---humanizing the subject being analyzed/researched
- the goal isn't to "prove" but instead, to explain

My current knowledge of Qualitative Research is it's  an understanding of certain perspectives, and or experiences of people. It involves collecting data through open ended questions observations, interviews, and or other methods. Additionally, the main goal is to get a deeper understanding of the purpose of the study.
