Summary Qualitative Research On ELT
5. Participants meanings
In qualitative research, like the researcher, the role of a participant is also very important.
During the whole research process, the focus of a researcher is to understand and
determine the meaning that a participant brings to the research rather than the definition
given or thought by the researcher based on the literature reviews.
Based on the different perspectives of participants, different meaning of research is
observed.
6. Flexible
Qualitative research is flexible. It can change at any stage of the research and based on
the change, the course of research might also get changed. Therefore, qualitative research
is used in such a scenario where the flexible nature of research is acceptable.
7. Reflexivity
In qualitative research, the researchers share everything about themselves like their
background and their purpose of research with the participants. Reflexivity also makes
them participate In the research openly and willingly.
8. Holistic Account
The purpose of conducting qualitative research is to paint the larger picture. While doing
qualitative research, the researcher focuses on different perspectives and determine
various factors involved in the research.
The research works to develop a complex description of the research problem. A
researcher should not try to identify a cause and effect type relationship between two or
more factors but should try to establish a complex cause and relationship between
different elements.
