Definition, characteristics and ethics

ETICS

To realize ethical research is vital because dealing with human subjects in depth can affect both participants and researchers.

Ethical principles can make researchers achieve the goals of a research as well as respect the participants’ rights.

Participants contribute to the analysis of the data they generate

CHARCTERISTICS

According to Bogdan and Biklen (2007) qualitative research is:

Inductive: theories or concepts are built on the base of gathering data.

Meaning: it is of essential concern to the qualitative approach and it is based on participant´s perspectives.

Concern with process: focuses on process rather than outcomes; focus group, in-depth interviews and participant observation are main methods of data collection.

Naturalistic: a no experimental approach in which subjects are studied in their natural settings; there isn´t manipulation of the environment

Descriptive data: the data collected take the form of words or pictures rather than numbers (photographs, videos, personal documents). All details are considerate.
