Every country from the world over has its certain territorial land
jurisdictions signified by areas measured through square meters. This is the
exact example of how you conceive boundaries. In the same vein, research
study has to have scope and delimitations in order to focus or concentrate on
the specific location, participants, methods and timeframes. In this module,
you will learn how to explore and set within limits your scholarly output
expressed through qualitative research.

“Moishe and the Pope”

About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that the Jewish
people had to leave Rome. Naturally, there was a big uproar from the
Jewish community. If the representative won, the Jews could stay. If
the Pope won, the Jews would leave. The Jews realized that they had
no choice. They looked around for a champion who could defend their
faith, but no one wanted to volunteer. It was too risky. So in
desperation, they finally picked an old man named Moishe, who spent
his life sweeping up after people, to represent them. Being old and
poor, he had less to lose, so he agreed. He asked only for one condition
to the debate. Not being used to saying very much as he cleaned up
around the settlement, he asked that neither side be allowed to talk.
The Pope agreed.
The day of the great debate came. Moishe and the Pope sat opposite
each other for a full minute before the Pope raised his hand and
showed three fingers. Moishe looked back at him and raised his index
finger. The Pope waived his hand in a circle around his head. Moishe
pointed to the ground where he sat. The Pope pulled out a communion
wafer and a glass of wine. Moishe pulled an apple. The Pope stood up
and announced. “I give up. This man is too good. The Jews may stay.”
An hour later, the cardinals were all around the Pope asking him what
happened. The Pope said, “First, I held up three fingers to represent
the Trinity. He responded by holding up one finger to remind me that
there was still one God common to both our religions. Then, I waved
my hand around me to show him that God was all around us. He
responded by pointing to the ground, showing that God was also right
here with us, in our midst. I offered the wine and the wafer to show
that God absolves us from our sins. He pulled out an apple to remind
me of original sin. He had an answer for everything. What could I do?”
Meanwhile, the Jewish community had crowded around Moishe,
amazed that this old, somewhat feeble man had done what all their
scholars had insisted was impossible! “What happened?” they asked.
“Well,” said Moishe, “first he said to me that the Jews had three days
to get out of the city. I told him that not one of us was leaving. Then,

5
 he told me that his whole city must be cleared of Jews! I let him know
that we were stating right here.” “And then?” asked a woman. “I really
don’t know,” said Moishe. “He took out his lunch, so I took mine.”

Learners’ Digest!

Question 1: What are the moral lessons that you learned?

Question 2: How is the story connected with the scope and delimitations
of a research study?

What is It

Designating Scope and Delimitations in Qualitative Research

Basically, the scope and delimitations of your study sets the parameters and
boundaries of the problem inquiry and narrows the scope of the study.
Scope
The scope of the study refers to the parameters under which the
study will be operating. The problem you seek to resolve will fit within certain
parameters. Think of the scope as the domain of your research – what’s in the
domain, and what is not. You have to set to it as specific as possible what you
will be inquiring and what influencing factors are within the accepted range of
your study. For example, if you are studying the ill effects of gang involvement

6
among Senior High School students, the scope could include both recruitment
strategies and initiation activities in grade 11 and grade 12.
Limitations
Limitations are matters and occurrences that emerge in a research study
which are out of researcher’s control. They limit the extensity to which a study
can go, and sometimes influence the result and conclusions that can be get.
Every inquiry or study no matter how scholarly organized has certain
limitations. Consequently, this is one among reasons why you should not use
the word “prove” and “disprove” in referring to research findings. Furthermore,
it is always possible that future research may cast doubt on the validity of any
hypothesis or conclusion from a study. Your study might have access to only
certain people in an organization certain documents, and certain data. These
are what we call limitations.
Delimitations
The delimitations of the study are those characteristics that emerge from
limitations in the scope of the paper (boundaries) and by conscious
exclusionary and inclusionary decisions made during the development of the
study. Unlike limitations, delimitations result from narrow and particular
choices of a researcher. Among these are the choice of objectives and questions,
variable of interest, the choice of theoretical dimensions that were adopted, the
paradigm, methodology and choice of participants.

Activity 5: Read and Learn!

Directions: As you read the lesson about designing qualitative research project
and learning from it, do this task in your own pace. Below is an
excerpt from “An Analytical Study of the Republic Act 7160,
otherwise known as the Local Government Code of 1991”. The text
indicates the scope and delimitation of the study. Write your answer
on your separate sheet of paper.

Scope and Delimitation

The study illustrates the historical development of local government

in the Philippines, particularly the adoption and implementation of
centralism during the Spanish Period, American Period, and post-war
period (1946-1991). Pursuant to this focus, this study will explain, in
topical manner, how centralism is evident in the political structures

7
 created and the laws and policies implemented during these periods.
In this study, the investigator will explain the main features and
important provisions of the 1991 Local Government Code. It will focus
only on the following aspects of the Local Government code, namely,
on: the local government structure; basic services and facilities of the
local government; interlocal government relations; local government
relations with people’s organization, nongovernmental organizations,
and the appointive officials and legislative bodies. Other aspects of
the code that were not mentioned will not be discussed in this
research. Also the research will compare the 1991 Local Government
Code, with the 1983 Local Government Code using the same
parameters mentioned above. Furthermore, this paper will explain
the weaknesses, problems, and failures of the implementation of the
1991 Local Government Code, particularly on issues related to fiscal
administration, devolution of basic services and facilities, and
inconsistencies in the Code’s provisions.

 Lesson Benefits and Beneficiaries of
2 Research

Traditionally, benefits and beneficiaries of research are expressed in the

significance of the study section of a paper whether in proposal or full-blown
research studies. Keep in mind that every research undertaking poses a
question of “What is new?” This question radically indicates an idea of what is
relevant, that is, how a research can be useful to the community in general.
This means that upon conducting research study, it is not only the contribution
to the field of knowledge but also a practical application of the newly found
knowledge into a more productive, progressive and sound decisions in the
making. To put it in scholarly view, Ardales (2001, pp.41-42) claimed: “the
significance of the study lies in the fact that it can help address or solve an
existing social and political problem and that different sectors will gain much
from the study and explain what each sector will gain from the research.”

Yirrkala Action Research

During the late 1980s and 1990s, in the far north of Australia in the
community of Yirrkala, North East Arnheim Land, Northern Territory,
the Yolngu indigenous people wanted to change their schools. They
wanted to make their schools more appropriate for Yolngu children.
Mandaywuy Yunupingu, then deputy principal at the school, wrote
about the problem this way:

Yolngu children have difficulties in learning areas of

Balanda (White man’s) knowledge. This is not because
Yolngu cannot think, it is because the curriculum in the
schools is not relevant for Yolngu children, and often
these curriculum documents are developed by Balanda
who are ethnocentric in their values. The way that
Balanda people have institutionalized their way of living
is through maintaining the social reproduction process
where children are sent to school and they are taught to
do things in a particular way. Often the things that they
learn favour (the interests of) the rich and powerful.
Because when they leave school (and go to work) the
control of the workforce is in the hands of the middle
class and the upper class”.

“An appropriate curriculum for Yolngu is one that is

located in the Aboriginal world which can enable the
children to cross over into the Balanda world. (It
allows) for identification of bits of Balanda knowledge
that are consistent with the Yolngu way of learning”.
(Yunupingu, 1991, p. 202).

The Yolngu teachers, together with other teachers and with the help
of their community, began a journey of participatory action research.
Working together, they changed the white man’s world of schooling.
Of course, sometimes there were conflicts and disagreements, but
they worked through them in the Yolngu way – toward consensus.
They had help but no money to conduct their research.

15
Their research was not research about schools and schooling in
general; rather, their participatory action research was about how
schooling was done in their schools. As Yunupingu (1999) put it:

“So here is a fundamental difference compared with traditional

research about Yolngu education: We start with Yolngu knowledge and
work out what comes from Yolngu minds as of central importance, not
the other way ‘round.” (pp.102-103).

Throughout the process, the teachers were guided by their own

collaborative research into their problems and practices. They
gathered stories from the old people. They garnered information about
how the school worked and did not work for them. They made changes
and watched what happened. They thought carefully about the
consequences of the changes they made, and then they made still
further changes on the basis of the evidence they had gathered.

Through their shared journey of participatory action research, the

school and the community discovered how to limit the culturally
corrosive effects of the white man’s way of schooling, and they learned
to respect both Yolngu and the white man’s ways. At first, the teachers
called the new form of schooling “both ways education.” Later, drawing
on a sacred story from their own tradition, they called it “Gamma
Education.” Yunupingu observed:

“I am hoping the Gamma research will become critical educational

research, that it will empower Yolngu, that it will emphasize
emancipatory aspects, and that it will take a side – just as the
Balanda research has always taken a side but never revealed this,
always claiming to be neutral and objective. My aim in Gamma is to
help, to change, to shift the balance of power.” (1991, p. 583)

Excerpt 1:
Pampaalert: Security Guard’s Use of Chemicals

This study examined the security guard’s use of chemical stimulants

such as coffee, cigarette, vitamins, drugs, and energy drinks as part of
their work in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. The informants in this
study include twenty-one (21) security guards who were residents of
Puerto Princesa City. Fifteen of the informants were men above 25
years old while six were women who were 28 years old and older. The
majority of the informants entered in the security industry because of
their lack of college degrees; most of them were high school graduates
and are supporting their families and other dependents. Open-ended
questionnaires have been used to gather data and audio recorded files
were transcribed. The transcripts were thematically analyzed through
the use of Nvivo software program. The findings of this study suggest
that in a highly urbanized city like Puerto Princesa, chemical products
that support or generate alertness are treated as indispensable
commodities by many security guards. Though some people say that
working as a security guards is a job for the lazy people (trabahong
pang-tamad), this study shows that their work is very challenging. This
research revealed that most of the security guards had difficulty
staying focused during the graveyard shift. Ultimately, this study found
that chemical stimulants may seem necessary in the security guards’

18
 job. However, their effects are temporary and create a greater risk to
the health of the users.

Excerpt 2:
“I WANT TO BE TALL SOMEDAY”: Height Aspirations Among Young
People in the Philippines

When the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Eve in the Philippines,
many children jump as high as they can, believing (with their parents)
that it would make them grow taller. In my ethnography, I found many
other practices that are believed to boost children’s statures when they
grow up, from sleeping in the afternoon to taking popular growth
supplements that are overtly marketed with claims that it can make
children grow tall(erg).

What aspirations are embedded in the desire for tallness that informs
these practices? I draw from an “ethnography of height” in the city of
Puerto Princesa, Western Philippines to look at different domains in
society where height “matters”, including basketball games and beauty
pageants that privilege tall bodies; jobs that explicitly or implicitly demand
“height requirements”; public nutrition programs that use children’s
heights as an index of both individual and national well-being; and the
everyday lives of the youths with whom I hung out.

These materialities of height in the Philippines, I argue, make it valuable

“asset” for young people, and makes explicable young people’s aspirations
of tallness. But although height emerges as a form of what I call “body
capital”, there is also a “becoming” in the aspiration of tallness (Biel and
Locke, 2010), and therein, I argue, lies the efficacy of height-making
practices. Moreover, the desire for tallness can be read as an idiom for
young people’s desire for better lives.
