Frequently Asked Questions about Qualitative Research

Qualitative research to uncover the deeper layers of human experience. By engaging with people’s stories, behaviors, and social contexts, we go beyond the numbers to understand the “why” and “how” behind their choices and perspectives. This approach allows us to capture the richness and complexity of real-world experiences that traditional metrics often miss.

The key main Qualitative Research Methods used by research agencies are

  • Focus Groups: Gather diverse perspectives through group discussion.

  • Observations: Study behaviour in natural settings.

  • Ethnography: Immerse in a culture or community for deep understanding.

  • Case Studies: Explore a single case in depth to uncover insights.

  • Grounded Theory: Build theories directly from collected data.

  • Phenomenology: Examine lived experiences around a specific phenomenon.

  • Narrative Analysis: Analyse personal stories to understand meaning-making.

  • Discourse Analysis: Study language use in social contexts.

  • Content Analysis: Systematically analyse text or media for themes.

  • Action Research: Collaboratively solve real-world problems with participants.

  • Historical Research: Investigate past events to interpret their impact.
