I am, mainly for the material I plan to work with. I may find that I need to incorporate a mixed-methods design, but as of now, qualitative is my best avenue.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of the data might not be as strong as some from a quantitative study, and it makes trends harder to figure out.

# data[].attributes.body
It allows a lot more detail and allows a deeper connection to the "why" behind the data and allows the full story to attempt and be told/shared

# data[].attributes.body
I am planning to do a qualitative approach in my study through interviews.

# data[].attributes.body
You cant just plug data into a spreadsheet to find trends. Which adds complications to interpretation.

# data[].attributes.body
Allows more detail and nuance in the information it gathers.

# data[].attributes.body
I am unsure, I will most likely not include one since I want to focus on the survey with a likert scale and how the student experience's compare to one another.

Typically there will be bias with the researcher's interpretation and variation in participant's responses. Since this is more time consuming, not as many people can be involved.

With qualitative research, you are able to explore more about an individual's perspective and experience as it relates to the research question. This allows for a better perspective about the setting, interactions, and cultural factors that might be influencing the person's experience.

Typically use a smaller sample size and this makes it difficult to create generalization because of the population from which the sample was taken.

Qualitative data can create a built in set of parameters that removes the possibility of some misinterpretations of data. Does not eliminate all possibilities.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I am planning on including a qualitative approach for my study as a part of a mixed method design as I will be including survey data.

# data[].attributes.body
If so it'd be an embedded design with minor strain of a larger quantitative study, but I don't believe so.

# data[].attributes.body
You can't generalize your findings to the same degree that quantitative data can. You also can't involve as many participants due to the amount of individual effort involved.

# data[].attributes.body
You get a much greater depth of understanding as well as individual perspectives. Stories can make for compelling explanations to support quantitative data.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, as part of a mixed methods design

# data[].attributes.body
Lack of predictive capacity

# data[].attributes.body
Allows for inductive reasoning

# data[].attributes.body
I'm likely going to do mixed-method.

# data[].attributes.body
No hypothesis because you're simply going in the direction of your findings, much more collection is necessary to have enough to interpret.

Better details, more natural, asks deeper psychological questions to get at how others make sense of their world.
