Research Methodology
 Target

Every human experience is a text to be read is one of the basic qualitative

sayings which aims to describe and clarify experience as it is lived and constituted
in awareness. It has something to do with how are you going to explore the
experiences of one person to another person based from existing phenomenon or
certain topic. To discover facts and information about the object of your interest is
to work collaboratively with some people, for the answers to your questions about
the topic.
In this module, you are going to design your own research methodology
based from the topic/problem of your chosen interest. You are going to learn what
are the different data collection plan, data gathering instrument and analysis
procedures.

After going through this learning material, you are expected to attain the
following objectives:

Learning Competency:

 Plans data collection, data gathering instrument and analysis

procedures (CS_RS11Iva-c-3)
 Presents written research methodology (CS_RS11Iva-c-4)

Subtasks

 Describe and explain the different parts of a research methodology in

a Qualitative Research

 Moderatum generalization is a modest, practical generalization based on

personal experience that makes daily life possible through the resemblance
of order and consistency to social interaction (Payne & Williams, 2005)
 The appropriate research design should be specified and described. Explain
why this particular research design or procedure was chosen.
 Include likewise the research approach: qualitative. Discuss and explain its
use.

Sample Research Design

Why Did the Pen Stop Writing?: The Struggles of Drop-Out Students

The case study method was utilized in this study. This design is a
critical study of a particular situation and method used to constrict a very
broad field of research into one easily researchable topic. According to Green
and Thorogod (2009), it is an in depth study undertaken of one particular
“case” which could be a site, individual or policy. Moreover, the role of the case
study method in research becomes more prominent when issues with regard
to education (Gulsecen and Kubat, 2006), sociology (Grasel and Schirmer,
2006) and community-based problems (Johnson, 2006), such as poverty,
unemployment, drug addiction, and illiteracy are raised. To make it clearer, it
is the thorough discussion of one certain phenomenon. This design is fitted for
the study since it concentrates on the gathering of data with regard to the
struggles of students who abandoned their schooling.
In addition, qualitative research approach was used. Qualitative
Research focuses on the description and interpretation that might lead to
development of new concepts or theory, or to an evaluation of an
organizational process which cannot be adequately expressed numerically (
Hancok et al, 2009). It aimed to get a better understanding about one’s
personal experiences that are to be interpreted for the formulations of
solutions that may be imposed. This approach is appropriate to the study
since utilized qualitative techniques such as interview and observation to
identify the struggles of the drop-out students
II. Writing the Sources of Data

Locale and Population of the Study

The following steps or guidelines in writing your sources of data.

1. Describe the place where the study will be conducted and the reason behind
the choice.
2. Describe the human participants in the study and the sampling design to be
used. Usually for qualitative approach, the theory of SATURATION POINT (a
theory stating that when responses tend to repeat, then the saturation point
is reached. Thus, there is no need to further cull out more data) is used to
determine the number of respondents. Discuss the selection in details.
3. Usually purposive sampling and snowball sampling are used, although other
sampling techniques can be used and basically it falls under non-probability
sampling.

Types of Non-Probability Sampling you may select from.

a. Quota Sampling -using quota or a specific set of persons whom you

believe to have the same characteristics of the target population.
b. Voluntary sampling- no need to undergo selection process since the
subject of your research volunteers himself/herself to undergo the study.
c. Purposive sampling – selecting your participant with rich experience or
interest in your study.
d. Availability sampling- willingness of the people to take part in your study.
e. Snowball sampling- free to obtain data from any group increasing the
number of people you want to form the sample of your study.

Sampling Designs

Maximum Variation Involves the selection of participants with the

Sampling most diverging forms of experience
Homogeneous Sampling Involves the selection of participants from a
particular subgroup whose experience is
somewhat alike
Critical Case Involves the selection of participants whose
experiences are particularly significant because
of their intensity or irregularity
Criterion Sampling Involves the selection of participants who meet
some important predetermined criterion

4. It is important to take note that depth of responses is important than the

number of responses for qualitative research.

Sample

Why Did the Pen Stop Writing?: The Struggles of Drop-Out Students

The population of this study was composed of junior and senior high
school drop-out students during the school year 2015-2016. The study
utilized purposive sampling and Snowball sampling technique in determining
the participants. Black (2010) describes that purposive sampling is a non-
probability sampling method and it occurs when elements for the sample are
chosen by the judgement of the researcher. The selection of respondents
depends upon their characteristics and the will of the researchers.
 III. Writing the Instrumentation and Data Collection

Instrumentation and Data Collection

In crafting your instrument in your research consider to describe the

instrument/s to be used., what each will measure; how they are crafted to whom
they will be administered and if possible, how they will be administered. Always
present the tools and procedures to be used to test the validity of the interview
guide questions. Reliability test is not required in the qualitative research. You may
append the computation for the validity. Explain also how the data collection is
done. Say for interview, how was the interview conducted? Was there a use of a
video tape, recording etc.?
The nature of central questions determines the overall research design; thus
research questions should elicit what is expected based from the research design
used in your study.
Question Typologies Nature Design
Story-Oriented Questions about the life Narrative
Questions experiences of individual and they
unfold over time
In-depth Descriptive Questions about developing an in- Case Study
Question depth understanding how
different cases provide insight in
an issue or unique issue
Process Question Questions about experiences over Grounded Theory
time or changes that stages or
process
Essence Question Questions about what is at essence Phenomenology
that all person’s experience about
a phenomenon

Sample

Why Did the Pen Stop Writing?: The Struggles of Drop-Out Students

To gather the necessary information from the identified students, the

researchers asked the principal or the Guidance Counselor to provide a copy of
the names of drop-out students.
The researchers utilized the interview method to extract information form
the participants. Relevant questions were formulated by the researchers to
comply with necessary requirements to conduct the interview. The questions
centered on the determining of struggles of drop-out students.
The interview was conducted by the researcher themselves. They used
audio recordings and video camera to record conversation between the
interviewer and the interviewee to easily facilitate the recording of information.
Also, the answers of the interviewee were jotted down by the interviewer.
Validity of the Interview Questions. Before the conduct of the
interview, the researchers let experts in the field Languages and Social Sciences
to validate the questions that would be raised. The validators were a guidance
counselor, an English teacher and a Filipino teacher to check the tagalog
translations of the questions. If the questions were rated 3-5, then they were
deemed appropriate for the collection of accurate data and information. The
validity rating is 4.67 indicating high validity, which means that the interview
questions were appropriate. Furthermore, the comments and suggestions of the
validators were highly observed.
 IV. Writing the Data Analysis

It is presented usually in thematic analysis of data exposition and

interpretation will be used to analyzed the data. It indicated here also how the data
gathered from the responses will be treated and presented

Sample

Why Did the Pen Stop Writing?: The Struggles of Drop-Out Students

The data collected were subjected for the analysis in the development of
a right and clear interpretation. The interview method wad used to determine
the responses of drop-out students. The responses were transcribed carefully
before they were subjected to cool and warm analyses to bring out the themes.
Further, open and axial coding method was used in the over-all thematic
analysis of the study. To this effect, a synthesizing diagram of the reasons why
students dropped form school was crafted.

Main Research Tools

1. Observation- a technique of gathering data whereby you personally watch,

interact, communicate with the subjects of your research.
2. Interview- a data gathering technique that makes you verbally ask the
subjects or participants questions to give answers to what your research
study is trying to look for.
3. Documentary analysis – it uses a systematic procedure to analyze
documentary evidence and answer specific research questions.

The main treatment of qualitative data is through thematic analysis which

can be generated from the gathered data using the different research tools.

V. Qualitative Data Analysis

Every human experience has its own morphology. Just like every individual
has its own unique DNA. Qualitative data analysis is the process of examining and
interpreting qualitative data to understand what it represents. Data analysis (what
the data say) is an attempt by the researcher to summarize the collected data
while data interpretation (what does it mean) is an attempt of the researcher to
find meaning.

Knowing the nature of a qualitative data, iterative process is a must in data

analysis and interpretation. There is a repetition of each processes used in your
study. For example, after you have gathered the data, you have created themes and
yet it is not answering your research questions, you have to change the theme
generated at the same time validate if that theme formed is appropriate to your
research questions. This is the reason why qualitative research is a tedious
process. You have to make sure that your data analysis and interpretation should
really capture the human experiences you are trying to extract from your
participants.
 How to Analyze?
Depends on:
a. What research questions drive your study
b. Research questions is linked to methods chosen and types of analysis
you apply
Data Analysis during Collection
Ask the following questions:
a. Why do participants act as they do?
b. What does this focus mean?
c. What else do I want to know?
d. What new ideas have emerged?
e. Is this new information

Data Analysis after Collection:

Follow the iterative process:

a. Become familiar with the data through reading and memoing

Memoing is the act of recording reflective notes about what the
researcher (fieldworker, data coder, and/or analyst) is learning from the
data. They are notes by the researcher to herself or himself about some
hypothesis regarding a category or property and especially relationships
between categories.
b. Exam the data in depth to provide detailed descriptions of the setting,
participants and activities.
c. Categorizing and coding pieces of data and grouping them into themes.

Data Analysis Strategies

After gathering the data, you have to apply the process of transcribing and
coding. Field notes compiled during an interview can be a useful complementary
source of information to facilitate this process, as the gap in time and between an
interview, transcribing, and coding can result in memory bias regarding non verbal
or environmental context issues that may affect the interpretation of data.
A. Transcribing and Checking

Transcribing is a difficult process even for the most experienced

transcribers, but it must be done to convert the spoken word to the written word to
facilitate analysis. All audio recordings should be transcribed verbatim, regardless
of how intelligible the transcript may be when it is read back. Lines of text should
be numbered.

Once the transcription is complete, the researcher should read it while

listening to the recording and do the following:
a. Correct any spelling or other errors
b. Anonymize the transcript so that the participant cannot be identified
from anything that is said (e.g. names, places, significant events)
c. Insert notations for pauses, laughter’s, looks of discomfort
d. Insert any punctuation, such as commas and full stops (periods) and
include any other contextual information that might have affected the
participant (e.g. temperature of the room and comfort of the room)

Sample Transcript
The participants (age late 50’s) had suffered from a chronic mental
health illness for 30 years. The participant had become a “revolving door
patient”, some who is frequently in and out of hospital. As the
participant talked about past experience, the researcher asked:

1. What was the treatment like 30 years ago?

2. Umm(H)- well it was pretty much they could do what they wanted
with you because I was put into the er, the er kind of system, I
was on
3. endless section threes.
4. Really…
5. but what I didn’t realize until later was that if you haven’t actually
posed a <threat> to someone or yourself they can’t really do that
but I didn’t know
6. that. So wh-when(.h) I first went into the hospital they put me on
the forensic ward ‘cause they said, “We don’t think you’ll stay here
we think you’ll just
7. run-run away.” So they put me then onto the acute admissions
ward and( -er)-I can remember one of the first things I recall when
I got onto that
8. Ward was sitting down with (a er) a Dr XXX. He had a book this
thick (gestures) and on each page it was like three questions and
he went through
Coding

Coding refers to the identification of topics, issues, similarities, and

differences that are revealed through the participant’s narratives and interpreted by
the researcher. Coding can be done by hand on a hard copy of the transcript, by
making notes in the margin or by highlighting and naming sections in the text.

Coding is not a precise science; it’s primarily an interpretive act. There

are no rules, merely guidelines. Also be aware that a code sometimes
summarizes or condense the data, not simply reduce it. Coding can be done
through open coding by means of identifying the themes or elicit themes from the
data; axial coding by means of searching for the concepts from the data; selective
coding which can be done through the identification of key concept.

B. Theming

Theming refers to the drawing together of codes from one or more

transcripts o present the findings of qualitative research in a coherent and
meaningful way. During presentation of the research, themes will be used as
the heading and underneath will be the codes, examples from the
transcripts, and the researcher’s own interpretation of what the themes
mean. Implications to real life should also be given. Approaches to theme
development are apriori approach which means investigator’s prior
theoretical understanding of the phenomenon under study and inductive
approach which involves the identification of themes based on data
gathered.

NOTE: One of the questions that arises about qualitative research relates to the
reliability of the interpretation and representation of participants’ narratives. There
are no statistical tests than can be used to check reliability and validity as there
are in quantitative research.
However, according to Lincoln and Guba suggests that there are other ways
to “establish confidence in the truth of findings. They call this confidence
“trustworthiness”
 These criteria are the following:

a. credibility -confidence in the truth of the findings);

b. transferability -showing that findings have applicability in another
context;
c. dependability -showing that the findings are consistent and could be
repeated;
d. confirmability- the extent to which the findings of a study are shaped by
the respondents and not the researcher bias, motivation, or interest

VI. Writing Ethical Considerations

Presents adequate measures and procedures to eb used that will safeguard the
well- being of the human participants (respondents), e.g. their informed consent,
freedom from coercion/physical or emotional harm, and confidentiality of certain
information, as well as the integrity of the sources/references.
*Research Ethics relate to the standards that should be upheld to guard the
participants from harm or risk. Ethical considerations should be made at each stage
of the research design and include informed consent, voluntary participation and
respect for confidentiality.

Sample Ethical Considerations

Given the highly sensitive and confidential information is likely to surface
in a study of this type, a meeting was held with the participants prior to the
conduct of the interview in order to inform them the nature and purpose of the
research, the plans for using the results from the interview, and the protocol to
be observed to protect the anonymity of the participants and institutions they
represent (Creswell, 2009).
On the actual day of interview, the participants were requested to read
and sign the letter of consent to participate in the study and for the interview to
be recorded. The participants were assured that their participation in the
research was strictly voluntary and that they would have the freedom to
withdraw their consent at any time. To enhance participants’ openness to share
their experiences more freely and vividly, it was further reiterated that the
participants may-at their dissertation-choose not to answer questions posed by
the researcher that they deemed to be intrusive, or request for the recorder to be
turned off at any time during the session. These norms were observed by the
researcher in a number of cases when recording sessions had to be interrupted
upon the request of participants before using certain statements that they
wished not to be recorded.

research
With the new learning modality, we have right
now, it is difficult to grasp and understand the
different concepts in studying quantitative
research. The self-learning modules in a way it
gives the gist or important concepts already but
still if I am going to study independently, it is very
hard. I need to search from the internet possible
explanations and ask other classmates if they also
know the lesson. Unfortunately, some of the
information are unclear. I ask my teacher and
that’s the only time that I will understand the
lesson. It is an added pressure to us specially no
teachers around to teach you … I mean I’m
referring to the face to face orientation. In
general, the content of the modules will help me a
lot but If I could not understand the content, I
think it won’t help me. That is why, I am really
hoping that we would go back to the face to face
orientation and I think the best thing to do is to
accept the reality and ask for God’s guidance,
wisdom and understanding.
