Gerrits, Lasse; Pagliarin, Sofia – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2021
Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) is said to be a method that can be used to uncover social complexity. However, this complexity is often 'missing in action' in actual empirical applications of the method. We aim to rearticulate the properties of social and causal complexity in their relationship to QCA. We first discuss the reasons why this…

This article explores the use of the circle as a shape metaphor in qualitative and education research and particularly in research designs. Circles dominate the shape metaphors found in the literature and the paper argues that this is because circles have key features that align well with designing and conducting qualitative research. Circles…

In this collaborative autoethnographic piece, we present voices through critical incident technique replaying the same event at an academic conference, all seeking to understand how and why the disruption of voice occurs and what to do to counter it. We contextualize these experiences in the ideal of "sustainability of qualitative…

It can be challenging to teach such critical…

Colin Foster – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2024
Educational researchers continue to polarize into 'qualitative' and 'quantitative' camps, with these terms often functioning as global identity markers, rather than as styles of research that are available to anyone. Many scholars have lamented the drawbacks of researchers being siloed into opposing, apparently incommensurable research paradigms,…

Emily Machado; Maggie R. Beneke; Hailey R. Love – Educational Researcher, 2024
Scholars of early childhood education have urged qualitative researchers to adapt their methods for use with young children. However, unjust social imaginations of childhood (e.g., who is considered a "child") play out in qualitative research, particularly for young children who are made most vulnerable by intersecting oppressions (e.g.,…

Anders Vassenden; Marte Mangset – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
In Goffman's terms, qualitative interviews are social encounters with their own realities. Hence, the 'situational critique' holds that interviews cannot produce knowledge about the world beyond these encounters, and that other methods, ethnography in particular, render lived life more accurately. The situational critique cannot be dismissed; yet…

Beng Kok Ong – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
This article examines how rigour is achieved in the Abductive Research Strategy (ARS). It begins with a review of some of the arguments about objectivity and rigour in social sciences, which shows that quantitative and qualitative researchers hold different meanings of objectivity and therefore different ways of achieving rigour in their research.…

Reem El Sherif; Pierre Pluye; Quan Nha Hong; Benoît Rihoux – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024

QCA allows for multiple conjunctural causation, implying that it is often a combination of…

Transcription is an integral part of much qualitative data analysis, yet rarely has it received close attention in debates over the use (or non-use) of "computer assisted qualitative data analysis software" (CAQDAS). This article draws upon a mixed-methods study that involved transcribing conversational interviews with carers, third…

The process was akin to what Gallacher and Gallagher have termed "muddling through" and was about primarily about 'arriving at, asking and then attempting to…
