Qualitative Research Questions

The purposes of quantitative and qualitative research are dissimilar. Lietz and Zayas (2010) stated "qualitative inquiry developed through a rich history of research seeking contextualized, in-depth descriptions that offer increased understanding" (p 189).Questions that inform qualitative research explore more in depth to what has been developed through time.

When starting off with a qualitative research question it's always good to use "What" or " How" ( Developing Your Research Questions, 2016). On a quantitative perspective according to Lietz and Zayas (2010) "quantitative research often seeks through measurement to test hypotheses, to determine outcomes and to draw generalizable conclusions to a defined population' (p 190). As a social work student I think it is very salient for me to understand the two perspectives so when I am conducting research I am able to explore either one or the other.

Research questions that lead to a qualitative approach usually can answer yes or no. In preparing these types of questions you can use the formats of surveys or interviews. In my week 4 proposal I chose a qualitative method and my research question stated "How does society negatively impact the progression of LGBTQ relationships?" I chose this question because I found it to be very intriguing to find out how different results can factor from this one impact.

I chose a qualitative approach because I have previously read so many articles that focused on this topic and in knowing the research I previously discovered I knew there would be some research on this proposal. In collecting data I would certainly research literature reviews, interview LQGTQ couples, and conduct anonymous surveys. The qualitative method that would be most suitable for answering the research question would be feminist research. "It is politically motivated in that it seeks to change social inequality "(Introduction to Feminist Research, 2016). I think using this method would help create solutions to the question and the path leading to these solutions.
