A dive into qualitative research
Session overview
Qualitative research methods are commonly used in program evaluations, health services research, clinical trials, and other public health projects. Qualitative inquiry can bring a richness of human experience and perspective which cannot be captured using quantitative methods. Using qualitative methods can help us to answer research questions that explore how and why people act in certain ways, learn more about their experiences, enable us to understand and improve the patient experience.
This session has been designed for health professionals and researchers who would like to become more familiar with qualitative research techniques, how to design rigorous qualitative studies, or who want to understand how to critically appraise qualitative research.
During this session we will cover:
- The similarities and differences between qualitative and quantitative research,
- The key methods used in qualitative research,
- The common factors associated with quality or rigour in qualitative research, and
- Appraisal tools for qualitative research.
