QUALRS-L USER GUIDE
FROM THE LISTOWNER: JUDITH PREISSLE
ABOUT QUALRS-L
QUALRS-L is an electronic discussion group for those interested
in using qualitative research for studying humans. It began in
1991 as a way to extend the Qualitative Interest Group (QUIG)
discussions beyond our local community, the University of
Georgia, and to follow up on the annual QUIG conference held here
each January.
The scope and nature of qualitative research is one of the
ongoing debates sometimes addressed by users of this list. I use
the label "qualitative research" for approaches to inquiry that
depend on elaborated accounts of what we see, hear, taste, touch,
smell, and experience. It has roots in cultural anthropology,
field sociology, and the professional fields. Qualitative
research includes field research, case study
research, ethnography, document and content analysis, interview
and observational research, community study, and life history and
biographical studies. Other names sometimes used as synonyms for
qualitative research are interpretive, naturalistic,
phenomenological, and descriptive. Qualitative research is
associated with such theories as symbolic interactionism,
constructivism, and ethnomethodology. Qualitative researchers
have a lot of fun, which sustains them through the aggravation,
frustration, uncertainty, and sheer slipperiness of most of the
approaches to inquiry considered qualitative.
