The nature of qualitative research design for second language learning has changed considerably with recent technological developments. This workshop introduces participants to how digital tools can be harnessed to create innovative workflows to support the entire research process. This includes becoming networked scholars through a variety of social media platforms; engaging in a paperless literature review process; generating data from online sources and mobile apps; transcribing with artificial intelligence applications; adopting appropriate data analysis software; and representing findings in ways that will reach the intended audience. Not only will participants gain a comprehensive introduction to the most recent digital tool developments as they apply to qualitative research, but, through detailed demonstrations, they will also learn how to analyze the affordances and constraints of such tools as well as the ethical implications of their use. Course materials will be drawn from the instructor’s forthcoming book, Doing Qualitative Research with Digital Tools(Sage, 2020). Topics to be covered will include (with tool examples): Networking through academic social media platforms (Google Scholar profiles, ORCID and ResearchGate) Developing a paperless literature review process using cloud storage (Dropbox), citation management software (Mendeley), annotating apps (GoodReader), and QDAS tools (ATLAS.ti 8) Collecting data through mobile apps (Evernote), social media sites (Twitter), and GeoDocs (Google Earth) Transcribing in ways that synchronize the media file with the text (Youtube), harness the capabilities of artificial intelligence (Otter.ai) and enable “hands-free” transcription (Google Voice) Selecting an appropriate qualitative data analysis software package (e.g. ATLAS.ti) Writing and representing findings in innovative ways (Authorea, Google Docs)
The purpose of the workshop is to provide participants with a comprehensive demonstration (rather than a step-by-step tutorial), of how digital tools can support efficient and effective methodological workflows. Laptops will be useful for exploring some of the software applications and online resources, but are not required.

Booth, Andrew. „Acknowledging a 'dual heritage' for qualitative evidence synthesis : harnessing the qualitative research and systematic review research traditions“. Thesis, University of Sheffield, 2013. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/4137/.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Qualitative evidence synthesis, an umbrella term that includes all forms of secondary qualitative synthesis and analysis including qualitative systematic review, has emerged from the confluence of conventional systematic review methods with methods for primary qualitative research. With such a 'mixed heritage', and the juxtaposition of quite different epistemological positions, it is inevitable that the resultant tensions have generated considerable creative energy and significant methodological frictions. These tensions have created an environment within which I have sought to make a contribution. Working with colleagues within the School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR), University of Sheffield, and collaborators at other institutions, including fellow co-convenors of the Cochrane Collaboration Qualitative Methods Group, I have examined the state of qualitative synthesis methods (Paper M1). I have traced and examined the respective contributions of the two components of the mixed heritage through five methodological papers that examine the stages of the systematic review process; searching (Paper M2), quality assessment (Paper M3), framework and thematic synthesis (Paper M4) and exploring heterogeneity (Paper M5) through to consideration of reporting standards (Papers M1-M3). This Thesis explores these issues through five case studies (Case Studies 1-5) to which I have contributed as lead methodologist. While, initially at least, the legacy of conventional systematic review methods could be seen to enjoy dominance, an emerging imperative to review systematically different types of evidence to explore different review questions, coupled with reduced time and resource envelopes within which to address time-critical questions from policy and practice, has opened up a more versatile and pragmatic toolkit. The Thesis concludes by identifying key methodological issues that require further investigation. I contend that many outstanding methodological challenges may derive their most productive insights from a more detailed consideration of corresponding solutions from primary qualitative research. The five papers in this body of work, therefore, make an original contribution to knowledge by establishing and demonstrating methodological principles by which flexible and context sensitive application of the versatile 'systematic review model' can be used to meet the pragmatic demands of health services research and technology assessment.

Objetivo: Analisar entre usuários diários de cannabis, os sinais e sintomas da Síndrome de Dependência de Substância, tendo como referência os critérios diagnósticos do DSM-IV. Métodos: Foi utilizado o referencial qualitativo de pesquisa. A amostra intencional, de usuários diários de maconha da omunidade, foi composta por “bola de neve”. Foram realizadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas, individuais e anônimas, com base nos critérios do Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico de Transtornos Mentais (DSM-IV). As entrevistas foram gravadas, para posterior transcrição e análise de conteúdo categorial. Resultados: Participaram deste estudo 24 pessoas (15 homens), com idades entre 18 a 49 anos. Apenas um entrevistado relatou compulsão para o uso. Os demais mencionaram planejamento do uso em suas rotinas diárias,sem identificar redução de atividades consideradas importantes. Prejuízo de memória foi citada por 17 entrevistados.Não foi relatada tolerância para a sensação de relaxamento, principal motivação para a continuidade do uso. Sintomas nos períodos de abstinência (irritação, insîonia e redução do apetite) se aproximaram mais de sentimentos de frustração e/ou dos conceitos de efeito rebote ou off-set. Apesar de apenas quatro terem preenchido diagnóstico de dependência, 16 se consideravam dependentes. Conclusões: Os critérios diagnósticos do DSM-IV podem não identificar usuários diários de cannabis como dependentes, ainda que eles se considerem. As especificidades em relação à tolerância e controle/compulsão parecem diminuir a probabilidade de preenchimento de critérios diagnósticos.
Aim: To study the DSM-IV criteria for substance dependence among daily cannabis users. Methods: A qualitative method and an intentional sample of daily cannabis users in the community were adopted in this investigation, which was conducted in Sao Paulo, Brazil. In-depth, semi-structured interviews based on the DSM-IV criteria for substance dependence were held individually. The interviews were recorded and transcribed for posterior content analyses. Results: 24 people (15 men) aged 18-49 years participated in this study. Only one participant reported compulsive use, while the others planned cannabis use through their daily routine without reducing the frequency in which engaged in important activities. Impairments on the short-term memory were reported by 17 participants. There was no report of tolerance towards the sensation of relaxation, which was claimed to be the main motivation for continued use. Symptoms during the abstinence periods (irritation, insomnia and appetite reduction) were more likely to be some frustration feeling for not being able to smoke marijuana and/or rebound or off-set effects. Despite the fact only four participants were diagnosed dependent (DSM-IV), 16 considered themselves dependent. Conclusions: The DSM-IV diagnoses criteria might not identify cannabis daily users as dependents, despite the fat that they considered themselves dependents. The specificities regarding tolerance and control/compulsion seem to reduce the probability of establishing diagnoses of dependence.

This thesis begins with contemporary qualitative research, where the extent of what is understood about human experience is reduced to the representations constructed by researchers. In this situation, where the qualitative researcher has a monopoly on the representation produced, there is no scope for a consideration of the expressive nature of language – in particular, the way that language discloses the world differently for each individual person. Thus, the aim of this thesis is to develop a theoretical approach for understanding the personal realities of the people involved in qualitative research that reinstates the centrality of the dialogic in understanding.Doctor of Philosophy

Adoption is a very honorable cause that families partake in with hopes of offering children an opportunity who otherwise would have little or nothing at all. Though a noble fight, many children are still left behind in adoption centers with families out there wanting them, yet they are not matching up? I wanted to undercover why that was. My paper is a Qualitative Research project on the adoption process conducted through four personal interviews from successfully adopting families. Through my interview schedule the goal of my research was to look for patterns and trends in the adoption process to better understand how it works. Along with my findings, my overall purpose was through learning of how it really works, to then possibly correct flawed mechanisms in our adoption systems to produce better outcomes for the children, as well as all of society.

Abstract: Energy is one of the most important bases for society since it contributes to the development of countries, changes in the energy matrix for use of renewable sources will cause positive impacts, contributing to sustainable development. The changes in the Brazilian and Honduran energy matrix in order to make them more efficient and seeking to contribute to environmental and legal development are the theme of interest in this research. The present work had as general objective to analyze the qualitative and legal development of the energy matrix of Brazil and Honduras and as specific objectives to study the characteristics of the energy matrix and its dependencies of nonrenewable energy in the period from 2000 to 2016 for Brazil and 2000 to 2015 for Honduras and to evaluate the effect of the legal strategies in the change of the energy matrix of both countries through a comparative analysis in the energy legislation of Brazil and Honduras. The methodology used was qualitative by means of a survey, the experimental period was from 11/15/2016 to 03/30/2018 where information and legal norms regarding the objective of this work were sought. Scientific articles were consulted on specialized websites, statistical data on energy consumption were obtained from international organizations. Government official websites consulted the energy legislation of Brazil and Honduras and using as a transversal criterion the updating and validity of the same. As results it was found that both countries are dependent on non-renewable energy to cover energy demand but are on the right path in diversifying their energy matrix, it was also possible to verify that there is a convergence between some energy laws of Brazil and Honduras, as well as other laws that can help in the energy efficiency of the countries improving the socioeconomic development ...

Le travail présenté dans ce document utilise les méthodes de recherche qualitative pour étudier (1) la fin-de-vie et (2) le consentement dans le domaine de la cardiologie. Dans une première étude, nous avons cherché à décrire et comprendre le vécu des médecins, des infirmières et des aides-soignants dans le Service de Cardiologie vis-à-vis des situations de fin-de-vie, en particulier chez les patients souffrant d’insuffisance cardiaque. Nos résultats montrent que globalement, la cardiologie est considérée comme une discipline active et à visée curative ; cette attitude est particulièrement prononcée chez les médecins, qui ont peu l’habitude d’affronter des situations de fin-de-vie et qui sont parfois réticents à l’idée d’initier des discussions sur ce sujet avec les patients. Les infirmières et les aides-soignants ont un rôle plus axé sur le soin et le confort, et sont donc plus ouverts à la possibilité de discuter de la fin-de-vie avec les malades. Cependant, l’intervention des infirmières et des aides-soignants ne peut se concevoir que dans les limites qui sont posées par les médecins : les infirmières ne prendraient jamais l’initiative d’aborder le sujet de la fin-de-vie avec un malade si le médecin ne l’a pas déjà fait. Les perspectives possibles pour harmoniser les approches vis-à-vis des situations de fin-de-vie incluent l’éducation des futurs médecins, des interventions pour améliorer les connaissances des soignants et augmenter leur confiance, ainsi que des projets de recherche pour identifier le moment opportun pour initier des discussions sur la fin-de-vie chez les patients avec insuffisance cardiaque, et les facteurs qui doivent inciter le cardiologue à demander une consultation spécialisée en soins palliatifs pour le malade. Enfin, une formation en communication serait de nature à améliorer les compétences des soignants en termes de communication sur la fin-de-vie en cardiologie.La deuxième partie de ce travail utilise la méthodologie de la théorie ancrée pour étudier les facteurs qui déterminent la décision d’un patient âgé d’accepter ou de refuser de participer à la recherche clinique. Nos résultats indiquent que les caractéristiques spécifiques de l’étude ne sont pas déterminantes dans la décision de participer ou non. Les patients qui ont d’autres préoccupations majeures (e.g. un deuil récent, ou un proche à soigner) n’ont pas les ressources mentales et/ou physiques nécessaires pour permettre la participation. Parmi les patients qui disposent des ressources mentales et/ou physiques nécessaires, il y a certains patients qui font preuve de beaucoup de confiance envers les professionnels de la santé. Ces patients s’engagent peu dans les décisions les concernant et suivent facilement les recommandations de ceux en qui ils ont confiance ; ils ont plutôt tendance à accepter. A l’inverse, certains patients s’engagement très activement dans leur propre santé et s’informent abusivement, sans prendre en considération la qualité scientifique des informations. Ils ne font pas confiance aux professionnels de la santé et ont plutôt tendance à refuser de participer à la recherche clinique. Enfin, dans une autre publication, nous discutons des dilemmes éthiques posés par la recherche de consentement pour la recherche clinique chez les patients gravement maladesThe work presented in this thesis uses qualitative research methods in the field of cardiology to investigate (1) end of life issues and (2) consent issues. In a first study, we investigated the experiences and perceptions of physicians, nurses and nurses’ aides vis-à-vis end-of-life situations in the Cardiology department, with particular focus on heart failure patients. We found that overall, there is a predominantly active and curative attitude in cardiology, particularly among physicians, who are not accustomed to dealing with end-of-life situations and often reluctant to initiate these discussions with patients. Nurses and nurses’ aides have a more comfort-giving role, and as such, are more open to holding end-of-life conversations with patients and families. However, their actions are limited by what the physicians have previously discussed with the patient. Nurses do not address end-of-life questions with the patient if the physician has not already done so. Perspectives to harmonize the approach to end-of-life care in our Department include education of future healthcare providers, interventions to increase knowledge and boost confidence among healthcare providers, and research into the optimal time to initiate palliative care in heart failure patients, and consensual triggers that should prompt referral to specialist palliative care. Finally, training in communication would help to enhance healthcare providers’ skills in dealing with end-of-life issues in cardiology.In the second part of this work, using grounded theory methodology, we sought to investigate the factors that influenced the decision to accept or decline to participate in clinical research in elderly patients. Our results indicate that the individual characteristics of the trial are not the main determinants in the decision. Patients who have other major occupations in their life (e.g. recent bereavement, or a caregiving role for a spouse or relative) do not have sufficient mental and/or physical resources to be able to accept research participation. Among those who have the sufficient mental and/or physical resources, there are patients with high trust in the medical profession, who engage little in their own health and trust the healthcare provider to guide their decision; these patients tend to accept. Conversely, at the other end of the spectrum are patients who engage actively in their own health, read a lot, and ask many questions, and have low trust in the medical profession. These patients tend to refuse to participate in research. Finally, in a separate publication, we also discuss the ethical considerations related to obtaining consent in seriously ill patients

Background – Corporate identity has emerged as an interesting subject. Companies’ care about how people perceive them and it is important for companies that people have a good impression about them. Catastrophes and other happenings can seriously harm a company. Corporate identity is concerned with the personality of the organization. It is designed to help the organization to achieve its goals. The term is rather complex and contains many different aspects. One of BP’s oilrigs in the Gulf of Mexico sank due to an explosion. It became an environmental catastrophe with oil spread over gigantic areas. BP was accused of acting slowly and preventing media to reach the polluted beaches. Further, they have also influenced the search results on Google. BP has created a bad reputation in the market due to the way they have been handling the oil spill. The public has started to question the actions by BP and they have started to express opinions about the company. This study will cover the different expression the public opinion has been taken against BP. Further, it will cover how those impressions have been affected the corporate identity of BP. Purpose – The aim of this study is to measure if and to which extent BP’s Corporate Identity has been affected by public opinion, due to the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in spring 2010. Method – The study employs a qualitative method. The data is based on primary data collection from online newspapers journals and scientific books. The theoretical section is based on information gathered mostly from journals and scientific books while the information about the oil spill comes mostly from online newspapers. Findings/Conclusions– My research found that the public opinion has been affecting BP’s corporate identity negatively. Further, BP’s actions after the disaster have contributed to the negative opinion about the company. The Greenpeace and Facebook action has helped to spread the public opinion.

O adoecimento por tuberculose é um processo subjetivo e interpenetrado por saberes, discursos e práticas, produzidos histórico-culturalmente na vida social e nutridos em um interdiscurso (sobre a doença e o doente), que afeta o modo como o sujeito significa a sua experiência. Neste estudo, sustentamo-nos no arcabouço teórico-metodológico da análise de discurso de matriz francesa, que busca a compreensão dos processos de produção de sentidos, na relação da língua com sua exterioridade histórica e social. Partindo do pressuposto de que há uma constituição linguístico-histórica do sujeito discursivo, o estudo objetivou investigar como os discursos sobre a tuberculose afetam a (des)construção identitária do sujeito, que perpassa as constituições subjetivas em seu processo de adoecimento. Utilizando a abordagem qualitativa, foram realizadas dezesseis entrevistas registradas em áudio, no período de agosto a outubro de 2009, com sujeitos em tratamento de tuberculose em um hospital público do município de João Pessoa, Estado da Paraíba. O corpus de análise foi constituído pelas entrevistas transcritas mais as produções artísticas dos participantes como representações de seu processo de adoecimento. No gerenciamento do material de linguagem bruto, utilizou-se o Software Atlas.ti, que nos auxiliou no processo anterior às análises discursivas. O projeto deste estudo foi submetido à apreciação de um Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, de acordo com as orientações da Resolução 196/96 do Conselho Nacional de Saúde. Ao relacionar a tuberculose a comportamentos excessivos, alcoolismo, fraqueza, vida urbana e drogadição, os sentidos produzidos pelos sujeitos entrevistados foram regidos por formações ideológicas que identificam a tuberculose como situação de desaprovação social. Observamos que as formações imaginárias, que remetem ao lugar desse sujeito doente como usuário do sistema de saúde produzem o seu apagamento, a sua interdição. Concluímos que a ênfase no simbólico, mediante os símbolos de estigma, que acentuam a visibilidade do doente de tuberculose como desviante ou sujeito \"especial\" é o mecanismo mais importante de manutenção da estigmatização da doença e do doente.The tuberculosis illness is a subjective process pervaded by knowledge, discourses and practices produced historic-culturally in the social life and nurtured in an interdiscourse (about the illness and the patient), that affects how the subject interprets his experience. In this study we follow the French theoretical and methodological framework of discourse analysis matrix that strives to understand the meaning production processes in the language relationship with its historic and social exteriority. Assuming that there is linguistic-historical constitution of the discursive subject, the study aimed to investigate how the tuberculosis discourses affect the subject´s identity (de)construction that goes beyond the subjective constitutions in his disease process. Sixteen audio taped interviews using the qualitative approach were conducted with tuberculosis treatment subjects in a City of João Pessoa, Paraíba, public hospital, during the August - October 2009 period. The corpus of analysis consists of the transcribed interviews plus the participants\' artistic productions as representations of their illness. The Atlas.ti Software was utilized in the raw language material management which helped in the process prior to discourse analyses. The study design was submitted for assessment to a Committee for Research Ethics. By linking tuberculosis to excessive behaviors, alcoholism, weakness, urban life and drug addiction, the meanings produced by the interviewees were governed by ideological formations that identify tuberculosis as a situation of social disapproval. It was observed that the imaginary formations, which refer to the place of that sick person as user of the health system produced its effacement, its isolation. We conclude that the emphasis on the symbolic, by means of the symbols of stigma that accentuate the TB patient visibility as a \"deviant\" or special subject, is the most important mechanism in maintaining the stigmatization of the disease and the patient.

Segundo a Organização Mundial de Saúde a esquizofrenia é um transtorno incapacitante de curso crônico caracterizado pela presença de alucinações e delírios. Alguns trabalhos apontam que o uso de maconha em pessoas com diagnóstico de esquizofrenia pode agravar os sintomas positivos da doença enquanto age positivamente sobre os sintomas negativos. Estudos qualitativos têm surgido na área com o objetivo de compreender os significados que pessoas com diagnóstico de esquizofrenia atribuem ao uso da substância. Esses estudos trazem que essas pessoas possuem uma visão positiva a respeito do uso, que este proporcionaria a elas um estado de relaxamento e alívio de suas tensões, além de relatarem aumento de criatividade e o uso da maconha como forma de atingir um estado espiritual mais elevado, assumindo um caráter de automedicação. Nesse sentido o presente trabalho teve como objetivo conhecer os significados que pessoas com esquizofrenia atribuem ao uso de maconha. Para isso, foi realizado estudo qualitativo, com referencial metodológico clínico-qualitativo. Os participantes foram selecionados em um serviço público de saúde mental especializado em álcool e drogas do interior de São Paulo. Como instrumento de coleta de dados, utilizou-se um roteiro de entrevista semiestruturada. Os critérios de inclusão no estudo foram: estar em atendimento, ou ser oriundo do serviço selecionado; ter diagnóstico de esquizofrenia segundo a CID-10; fazer uso de maconha ou ter feito uso no ano anterior a entrevista; ter mais que 18 anos e não fazer uso de outra droga ilícita, como cocaína ou crack. Foram realizadas um total de 10 entrevistas. Os participantes da pesquisa eram todos do sexo masculino e tinham em média 28 anos de idade. Foram levantadas quatro categorias a partir da análise das entrevistas: a) Percepções a respeito do adoecimento, onde os participantes relatam o preconceito e estigma que envolve o diagnóstico e como alguns sintomas da esquizofrenia os incapacitam para atividades cotidianas; b) Uso de maconha, este iniciado, em sua maioria, na adolescência e sempre na companhia de amigos; c) Esquizofrenia e maconha, onde discursos relacionados sobre aumento de criatividade, capacidade de organizar o pensamento, vivências de espiritualidade e melhora na qualidade do sono se fizeram presentes e d) Tratamento, onde a busca pelo tratamento partia sempre de algum familiar. É importante conhecermos a visão dessas pessoas a respeito do uso de maconha para compreendermos o que sustenta a manutenção deste, além de fornecer novos elementos na construção de um olhar crítico sobre este fenômeno.According to the World Health Organization schizophrenia is a disabling disorder of chronic course characterized by the presence of hallucinations and delusions. Some studies suggest that the use of marijuana in people diagnosed with schizophrenia may exacerbate the positive symptoms of the disease while it acts positively on the negative symptoms. Qualitative studies have emerged in the area with the goal of understanding the meanings that people diagnosed with schizophrenia attribute to the use of the substance. These studies bring those people have a positive vision regarding the usage, that this would provide them a state of relaxation and relief of the tension, as well as reporting an increase of creativity and the use of marijuana as a way to achieve a spiritual state higher, assuming a character of \"medication\". In this sense, the objective of this study was to understand the meanings that people with schizophrenia attributed to marijuana use. For this reason, a qualitative study was carried out, with a methodological clinical-qualitative. The participants were selected in a public service of mental health who specializes in alcohol and drug use in the interior of São Paulo. As an instrument of data collection, we used a script of semi-structured interview. Inclusion criteria were: being in service, or be from the selected service; have a diagnosis of schizophrenia according to ICD-10; make use of marijuana or having used the year before the interview; have more than 18 years and not make use of other illicit drugs such as cocaine or crack. a total of 10 interviews were conducted. The participants were all male and had an average age of 28. Four categories were raised from the analysis of the interviews: a) Perceptions about the illness, where participants reported prejudice and stigma surrounding the diagnosis and some symptoms of schizophrenia to incapacitate the daily activities; b) Marijuana use, this started, mostly in their teens and always in the company of friends; c) Schizophrenia and cannabis, where speeches related to increased creativity, ability to organize thought, spirituality experiences and improves the quality of sleep were present and d) Treatment, where the search for treatment always started from a family member. It is important to know the vision of these people about marijuana use to understand what supports the maintenance of this, in addition to providing new elements in building a critical look at this phenomenon.

Traditionally, social scientists perceived causality as regularity. As a consequence, qualitative
comparative case study research was regarded as unsuitable for drawing causal inferences
since a few cases cannot establish regularity. The dominant perception of causality
has changed, however. Nowadays, social scientists define and identify causality through
the counterfactual effect of a treatment. This brings causal inference in qualitative comparative
research back on the agenda since comparative case studies can identify counterfactual
treatment effects. We argue that the validity of causal inferences from the comparative
study of cases depends on the employed case-selection algorithm. We employ Monte Carlo
techniques to demonstrate that different case-selection rules strongly differ in their ex ante
reliability for making valid causal inferences and identify the most and the least reliable case
selection rules.

ADHD, attention deficit hyperactive disorder was first described as such in the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders, the DSM in 1987. Since then the disorder has had great interest from research but also from society. The amount of ADHD diagnoses has increased every year since the disorder has been established by the American Psychiatric Association and is in recent years the most established mental illness among children and adults. The goal of this paper is to explore how people diagnosed with ADHD subjectively define and experience the abstract object of ADHD. Previous research focuses on mapping the problems and impairments resulting from this “illness”, to gain more insight into the differences between people diagnosed with ADHD, and people who do not possess the described symptoms, often focused on the problems people experience. Social constructionists look upon ADHD as socially constructed; a socially valued dysfunction, a deviant pattern of behaviour was once observed and categorised into what we now call symptoms. The word symptom demonstrates indication or evidence, and the abstract object takes on disease like properties. The object becomes reified, which means as much as become real. The result is that ADHD is seen as the cause of problems, instead of a group of problems that was once labelled ADHD. The informants used for this research seem to have problems with controlling their impulses, which besides negatively influencing executive functioning, causes problems with social interaction. The informants often express feeling misunderstood by their environment, they feel different. They feel discriminated against by the structures of school, work and society as a whole which, they feel, impairs their abilities and missuses their talents. They express to feel at ease when they are fully occupied with something interesting and seem to call for understanding for their inabilities and space to develop their talents.

Background: Paediatric pharmacovigilance is a recognised priority due to the vulnerability of children to adverse drug reactions (ADRs). The UK Yellow Card Scheme is central to pharmacovigilance, but other complementary methods have been suggested. The introduction of the community health index (CHI) in all NHS contacts in Scotland provides opportunities to link prescribing and health utilization data and thereby identify new ADR signals. The views of healthcare professionals (HCPs) on the linkage of NHS data for pharmacovigilance purposes in children have not been explored: the aim of this research was to explore the acceptability of linking routinely collected healthcare data to inform the design of a new system for pharmacovigilance in children. Methods: A mixed methods study was conducted involving interviews, focus-groups and a threeround Delphi survey with HCPs in Scotland. The survey was structured using the Theoretical Domains Framework of behaviour change. Results were triangulated. Ethical approval was granted by the North of Scotland Research Ethics Service. Results Interviews (n=23) identified issues with security, anonymisation and legal challenges that should be addressed prior to implementation. Focus-group participants (n=22, 6 groups) additionally identified potential issues with the feasibility of the planned data linkage and latent liability issues from dissemination of findings. The Delphi survey initially covered the issues identified in the preceding work. Retained items after three rounds focused on professional standards, requirements for linkage and the use and format of feedback. The proposed data linkage was perceived as positive and necessary, with participants in all three studies highlighting the benefits for research and for patients. Conclusion: The development of a paediatric linked database has support from professional stakeholders and HCPs in Scotland. The proposed data linkage was perceived to meet a service need. No insurmountable issues were identified, but key issues should be addressed prior to implementation.

This paper used a qualitative data set of interviews to describe the phenomenon of community in ultrarunning, as well as to define what it means to be an ultrarunner as told from an insider’s perspective. The literature review summarized theories including: social group structure, asset based community development, pain community, experience stretching, and positive psychology, and how they form a unique shared experience within the ultrarunning community. In addition to interviews, participants provided a photograph to be utilized for photo elicitation, and a photo analysis by the researcher.
The results of this study suggest that ultrarunning communities may be structured around shared experience, and specifically the experience of multiple perspectives of ultramarathon racing. Stereotypes of ultrarunners are inaccurate, and everyone is welcome in the community so long as they are helping promote the sport in a positive way. The majority of ultrarunners views their role in the ultrarunning community as motivators and strive to maintain a positive and inclusive sport for current and future ultrarunning community members. The descriptive narratives of shared experiences gathered in this study of the values of the ultrarunning community illustrate how ultrarunning is an inclusive group that promotes the integrity of the sport through multi-faceted roles of ultrarunning events.

Data were obtained through the observation of the study participants and the administration of semi-structured interviews to nine primiparous puerperal women and their reference family members over the first six months after birth (two cases), until study withdrawal (one case), or breastfeeding discontinuation (six cases). After data collection and total transcription of interviews and field logs, the following operational categories were defined and empirical categories were correlated based on principles of the dialectic hermeneutic method: 1 - Initiating breastfeeding: guess I do not know anything about breastfeeding, I have learned a little here and there and it is good to breastfeed, but there are problems; 2 - keeping breastfeeding exclusively: breastfeeding my child is magical, problems arise, but I keep on adapting and being able to breastfeed, I know breastfeeding is the best for my child and I have help with my daily chores; 3 - experiencing early weaning: I was well informed about breastfeeding, I did not want it, but weaning was necessary and if breastfeeding were easy, I would have been able to do it. From early expectations to actual practice, the primiparous women revealed their sometimes convergent and sometimes divergent feelings, perceptions and attitudes. A longer exclusive breastfeeding time was observed among the women who were delighted with the activity and convinced of the benefits it provided to their children, even in the presence of problems and opposing interferences from their cultural environment. Among those who Abstract experienced early weaning, the expressed desire to and previous knowledge on breastfeeding were not... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Happiness research is advancing as an academic discipline as well as on the political agenda. An aspect, largely ignored in the field, is what impact an individual’s construction of the good life has on his or her subjective well-being. The purpose of this paper was to investigate how people in different situations in life and with different backgrounds construct the idea of a good life and the importance these constructions may have in explaining subjective well-being. Despite the differences between themselves, the respondents’ constructions of the good life were shown to have a lot in common. Some factors in the good life were shared by the respondents, such as relations to other people, access to food, water and housing, whereas in other aspects, such as money and time, the constructions of the good life differed quite a lot from one another. When evaluating their own lives the respondents used quite different criteria mostly corresponding to their idea of the good life. If this is a general pattern, possible to replicate in other studies, one may in the future be able to draw the conclusion that the construction of the good life has an effect on our subjective well-being.

Abstract: This research explores management of strategic wellness in Finnish companies by adding a qualitative perspective to the previous research and by filling gaps related how wellness is measured and which categories of wellness management have the most effect on the financial performance, customer interaction, business processes, and learning & growth of a company. The wellness categories are connected to balanced scorecard categories based on criteria: wellness categories need to have quantitative measurements and they need to be connected to BSC improvements. The study is done via interviewing company representatives through semi-structured interviews. The results were analysed with the help of previous research related to wellness management and the balanced scorecard. The main theories used in this research are based on strategic wellness management and the Balanced Scorecard. The sample studied for this research consists of Finnish companies of different sizes and industries, limited to office work. The findings show that companies are interested and motivated in measuring and managing wellness of their employees. The biggest issues are related to the setting of realistic and achievable wellness goals, and the measurements in many areas of wellness management make it difficult measure the exact effects in different performance aspects, and what exactly causes these effects. The only wellness management category which has proper quantifiable measurements which makes its outcomes measurable with the BSC are the wellness processes. From the perspective of BSC categories, the most impact from wellness processes was seen under the learning and growth category. This research fills some gaps in knowledge of what wellness management can cause in a company.

While there have been many presentations and anecdotal evidence in support of AAT, quantitative empirically validated studies are very limited. Without quantitative empirical studies to support the effectiveness of AAT, it remains an unproven complement to traditional physical and psychotherapeutic practices (Kruger & Serpell,2010). The value and importance of non-empirical literature on AAT,including therapists’ observations, various author’s personal experiences, and unstructured interviews with patients, will be explored in the next section. Empirical literature on AAT, including scientific experiment and controlled research studies, will also be addressed. Finally, a conclusion providing ideas for future directions in research in this discipline will be presented.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis is a qualitative investigation of once-weekly psychoanalytic psychotherapy practised by the researcher over a period of one year with a sample of six patients, all of whom were over 65 at the beginning of their treatment and had been previously diagnosed by clinical referrers as depressed. The purpose of the study was to explore whether psychotherapy could alleviate their distress and enhance the quality of their later life. It was also to investigate if there were other reasons for depression in later life than the failure to mourn early losses. In an earlier study I had applied the method of psychoanalytic infant observation to the study of aged adults suffering from dementia, both to learn about their states of mind and to study their responses to this kind of close observational attention. This new study brings my training and experience as a child and adult psychotherapist to bear on the experience of older adults. I adopted a qualitative method of research, applying a form of Grounded Theory to the analysis of clinical data which I wrote up in detail after each clinical session. I sought to identify themes which explained the origins of depression in later life in otherwise well-functioning adults both from thematic analysis of the separate case studies and by comparing them, In a follow-up review meeting three months after the completion of treatment research patients completed a questionnaire which enabled me to assess the changes which had taken place as a consequence of clinical treatment. These results and the outcomes of the CORE measures, an independent assessment, indicated significant improvements in the states of mind of all the patients since the beginning of their psychotherapy. The context for this qualitative clinical study is provided by a chapter which reviews the literature on the psychology and especially the psychoanalytic study of old age, identifying earlier theoretical contributions beginning with the work of Freud which were formative to my work. A central finding of my study was that losses, sometimes from childhood, remained the significant unrecognized sources of depression, and that enabling patients to reflect on aspirations which were no longer attainable could bring them relief from depression and a renewed interest in life. Most previous psychoanalytic writing in this field is based on single clinical cases. My study is original both in its systematic comparison of six cases of depression in old age and in its adoption of an explicitly qualitative research method adapted to clinical data. A further context for my investigation is provided by a chapter in which my research methodology is described. A chapter on the social context of old age is included, which takes note of the growing proportion of aged people in the population and the demands placed on social provision to meet their physical needs as well as their mental well being. The final chapter draws some further conclusions and recommendations from the study.

This thesis investigates whether a qualitative research method, using phenomenological interviews and analysis, can be successfully applied to perceptual audio research, a field heretofore that has mainly used quantitative methods. The method is investigated by studying the types of information elicited by the method and the information’s usefulness and relevance to the conducted study. The qualitative method is applied in three different conditions: a non-experimental condition, an experimental condition, and an experimental condition using mixed-methods. The thesis also identifies implications associated with using a qualitative method in a quantitative field of research, implications that researchers should acknowledge and consider. All scientific criteria in which the quantitative research is judged cannot directly be applied to a qualitative method. A qualitative method has to be judged on its own framework, departure points, and scientific criteria. The information elicited from the qualitative method contains information that supports known knowledge and adds new knowledge. It supplements the accessibility to the subjects’ perceptions and used methods when conducting a perceptual evaluation task. In conclusion, a qualitative research method that consists of phenomenological interviews and analyses can be successfully applied in all the tested conditions.Godkänd; 2012; 20121119 (dannyb); LICENTIATSEMINARIUM Ämne: Ljudteknik Examinator: Biträdande professor Jan Berg, Luleå tekniska universitet Diskutant: PhD, Senior Lecturer Natanya Ford, Bucks New University, United Kingdom Tid: Fredag den 18 januari 2013 kl 13.00 Plats: L165, Musikhögskolan Piteå, Luleå tekniska universitet

This thesis makes a distinctive contribution to debates about how to include and quality assess 'qualitative' research in systematic reviews. It analyses sets of quality criteria, assesses the impact of study quality on findings and compares 'quantitative' and 'qualitative' perspectives on quality. The research consists of a review of the literature and three new methodological studies. The first study surveyed and evaluated quality assessment tools, the second analysed the development of a new tool, and the third examined the relationship between the quality of 'qualitative' research and the findings of systematic reviews. A large number of different quality criteria have been proposed for 'qualitative' research but assessment tools represent 'good practice' guides rather than aids to distinguish between 'good' and 'bad' studies. Continuous funding, a policy-focussed context, and a multi-disciplinary team which viewed research questions as drivers for quality assessment were important factors for developing a unique tool which did help to distinguish between studies. There was no straightforward relationship between study quality and the findings of reviews. However, excluding lower quality studies had little impact on review findings. Studies which made the biggest contribution to reviews were those with appropriate methods for the review question and findings displaying conceptual depth. In contrast to procedures for 'quantitative' research, engaging with study findings as well as study methods is important for assessing fully the quality of 'qualitative' research. This thesis generates important empirical evidence for debates about how to assess the quality of 'qualitative' research. It shows how standard quality assessment protocols need to be altered better to fit 'qualitative' research, reveals how study quality can impact on review findings and demonstrates some problems with the terms 'qualitative' and 'quantitative'. Future debate in this area should focus on how to identify reliable answers to questions about intervention process, context and need.

Intelligence is what differentiates human from other living organisms on this planet.
Intelligence has been defined in various ways at different times by different disciplines.
Intelligence is what makes us think and do things which others cannot. Intelligence
evolved over the decades, although it has been that was around always, but the
definition changed with time and types emerged. Emotional intelligence (EI) must
have been in humans forever but was not being talked about so much until 25 years
ago. It has gained much popularity in the last 25 years. After a few years of Emotional
Intelligence, another kind of intelligence became popular, and that was customer
intelligence. It is being gathered in many ways, and one of the very involved ways is
to use qualitative market research techniques. A recent intelligence is about machines
and is called Artificial Intelligence.
The purpose of this study is to assess the importance of emotional intelligence in
qualitative market research techniques (customer Intelligence) and artificial
intelligence is used to detect the emotions from the facial images. Another purpose is
to automate the measurement of Emotional Intelligence by finding the essential
features and missing data out of emotional intelligence measurement test.
In the pursuit to detect images from the face, feature extraction was done using
Principal Component Analysis (PCA). This experiment aims to recognise emotions
from a given set of pictures. The problem is a classification problem and comes under
supervised learning. Since each image has many features, feature extraction
techniques were required to reduce the feature set. This research applies PCA for
transforming the dimensions of the data. PCA helps in converting the data and
improves the efficiency and effectiveness of the classifier.
If the number of features of the data is large, it takes more time for computation, and
more memory is required to store and process the data. The understanding of the results is
also hampered because of failure to visualise the data. As some of the features are not
relevant, so feature selection was made using the Fisher Discriminant Ratio, and the
classification was done using Support Vector Machine (SVM). The application of
forward feature selection was used to reduce the number of features. The suggested
model reads a set of images, converts them to a two-dimensional array, followed by the
application of PCA. The resultant data is subjected to forward feature selection. This
resulted in reducing the dimensionality of the data to a large extent. High values of
accuracy, specificity and sensitivity conclude that the proposed machine learning model
can help to identify emotions. The accuracy, specificity and sensitivity are encouraging.
The average accuracy is 0.80; specificity is .97 and sensitivity is 0.75. This helps to
conclude that this model can detect emotions on facial images by 80% accuracy and will
be specific 97% times and sensitive 75% times.
This study helps in the measurement of EI by finding the most important features of the
TMMS test of EI using Machine Learning techniques. It is intended to carry out similar
experiments in the future for the remaining tests used for measuring EI, and hence to
develop a better model for understanding, classifying and predicting EI. In order to
measure EI, issues like the handling of noise and regression need to be addressed. This
study suggests a framework to do the same. Regression analysis is used to find the
relation between the dependent and the independent variables. Neural Network has
been used to carry out the regression to find missing data of emotional intelligence
measurement test.
The study created a framework to classify the faces based on emotions. It was concluded
that artificial intelligence could help in increased emotional intelligence and gather customer
intelligence. In a nutshell, it can be said that Emotional Intelligence plays a role in
qualitative market research techniques, as reported. So there are a significant relationship in
Emotional Intelligence and qualitative market research techniques. It is also concluded that
missing data while measuring EI can be predicted using regression techniques. It is also
concluded that features of the existing EI test can be ranked according to their importance to
get the most important features. The emotions on faces can be detected using machine
learning, and that can help in study consumer behaviour as behaviour comprises of
emotions, thus increasing the impact of qualitative market research techniques.
The first chapter of the thesis gives an introduction and classification of emotional
intelligence and qualitative market research. The chapter also charts out the scope of
the study, parts of the study under its orientation and most importantly, the significance
of the study. The second chapter discusses the literature published in this area with
details of 21 tests of emotional intelligence. It is followed by the third chapter, which
discusses the research objectives, hypothesis and the conceptual framework of the
study. The fourth chapter gives details of the survey, including sampling, sample size
& variables and pre-processing of data. The fifth chapter explains the experiment,
observation and analysis of data. Conclusion and contribution are given in the Sixth
chapter, and recommendations are made in the Seventh chapter. Some implications are
explained in chapter 8 th and limitation, and future scope of the study is given in the last
(Ninth) chapter.

Thesis advisor: M. Brinton LykesEvery day Muslim women in the United States wake up to a harsh political world that attacks their identities, communities, and freedom. In this context, Muslim women endure immense psychological tolls on their sense of identity, safety, and relationships. For many of them, walking out the door and claiming their Muslim identity is an act of political resistance. Despite the disempowerment they may experience, many engage in social actions to resist these oppressive forces. Yet, Muslim women activists have received strikingly little attention in the psychological literature. To date, no research has explored the psychosocial experiences of Muslim women who engage in activism, nor the meanings they make of these engagements or their trajectories of resistance. Using a participatory research approach informed by art-based inquiry techniques, this inductive qualitative study explored 10 Muslim women activists’ trajectories into and experiences of engaging in social action. A constructivist theoretical model of Muslim women activists' processes of resistance and community liberation was developed through qualitative inductive analyses of in-depth interviews and participants’ illustrations. Eight “clusters” have been configured to map a model that represents both processes and outcomes of how these 10 women engaged, experienced, and made meaning of their activism. They include: (1) living in a post 9/11 sociopolitical context; (2) navigating the Muslim community context; (3) internal experiences of being a Muslim woman; (4) guiding ideals toward activism journey; (5) development of political analyses; (6) resistance actions toward social change; (7) burdens and benefits of engagement in resistance; and (8) supportive forces in the process of resistance. Although only representative of 10 participants, the model is sufficiently theorized to suggest that life in a multiply traumatizing context shapes Muslim women activists’ experiences, precluding and contributing to their persistence and resistance throughout and during their engagement in social change work. Political analyses and ideals are vital in their descriptions of their trajectories of becoming activists. Benefits and burdens that are inevitable in social change work include both the thrill and fun of engaging in activism as well as the costs to relationships and conflicts inherent in such work. Finally, encouragement by other Muslims and allies is discussed as a valuable source of support to Muslim women activists. Limitations are discussed and implications are proposed to inform possibilities for future healing centered research and action

Throughout the world professional associations in librarianship place considerable emphasis on the professional credentialing of their members. This normally means that educational and training courses of study offering a first professional qualification take up much of this activity. Since this first professional qualification does not normally require emphasis on the research process, but rather in obtaining the required skills and knowledge in order to practice librarianship, it is little wonder that the role of research in the pro-fession has not always been openly encouraged by its associations. Nevertheless, there is evidence that some associations are realizing that research and the research process needs to be better recognized, particularly as library professionals are increasingly undertaking higher level qualifications which include a research com-ponent. Yet if a research qualification is not always necessary for recognition as a professional librarian, the question needs to be asked: why should librarians bother to undertake the rigours of study to achieve it? The paper will discuss the importance or otherwise of research and its processes in the profession of librarianship and consider the role of the professional association in recognizing, enabling and promoting a research cul-ture amongst qualified professionals. The paper will particularly address the Australian context.

For several decades now, physician-scientists have been referred to as an “endangered species.” Many factors have contributed to the dearth of clinical investigators, and training programs in clinical research are just one tool in a multi-pronged strategy to increase the number of successful physician-scientists working in health research. A qualitative approach that analyzes students’ educational goals and experiences can help fill the gaps in our knowledge about how best to train aspiring physician-scientists. This study was an interpretive phenomenology that evaluated the Master of Science program in Clinical and Translational Research (MSCTR) at the University of Cincinnati. The purpose of the study was to allow students to articulate their expectations, needs, and experiences in the MSCTR. The study included a group level assessment (GLA) and document review. Findings suggest several reasons students enrolled in the MSCTR, as well as some areas for improvement in the program: more physician-centered classes, a more directed curriculum, and a more cohesive course plan overall. Conclusions from these recommendations are that student perspectives can inform decisions around curricula and instructional methods in powerful ways, particularly when combined with a qualitative methodological approach. This study revealed several insights into how faculty and administrators can more effectively train physicians in research methodology. Training should be as applied and relevant as possible to make it directly applicable to clinical practice. This goal could be enhanced if classes – particularly statistics classes – were more physician-oriented. The curriculum of a clinical research training program for clinicians should be clear and directed, but with some flexibility and space within the curriculum for classes within areas of specialization. Collaboration should be integrated throughout, and courses should follow a logical, interconnected sequence.

Resumo: A Resolução CFO-82/2008 divulgada em 1º de Outubro de 2008 baixou normas para habilitação de Cirurgiões-Dentistas (CD) nas Práticas Integrativas e Complementares (PIC) no Brasil. Os objetivos do trabalho foram: identificar e analisar as evidências científicas disponíveis no campo das PIC na odontologia, bem como conhecer as motivações que desencadearam a busca de CD pela habilitação em PIC. Os resultados da pesquisa encontram-se disponibilizados nesta tese em oito capítulos (artigos). Os três primeiros capítulos abordam revisões sistemáticas que contemplem dimensões além de parâmetros clínicos e as evidências do uso clínico das PIC em saúde bucal. No quarto capítulo são abordadas as percepções de estudantes do curso de odontologia sobre a incorporação do ensino das PIC durante o período de graduação. O quinto e o sexto capítulo apresentam os resultados de duas revisões sistemáticas da literatura referentes à captação de dados qualitativos por meio de entrevistas telefônicas e por meio de outros tipos de entrevistas conduzidas à distância. No sétimo capitulo, apresenta-se a distribuição geográfica dos CD habilitados em 2009 para o exercício das PIC no Brasil. O oitavo e último capítulo consiste de um estudo qualitativo sobe as motivações que desencadearam a busca dos CD pela habilitação em PIC. Com o desenvolvimento da pesquisa foi possível: a) expor à comunidade científica uma proposta de metodologia que extrapola a compilação de dados clínicos e quantitativos, que não alcançam informações além das intervenções e desfechos clínicos (capítulo 1); b) identificar que a literatura analisada revelou maior volume de publicação de estudos sobre laserterapia odontológica e que embora existam evidências positivas do uso das PIC na odontologia, os artigos avaliados apresentaram limitações referentes à qualidade e consistência de seus resultados (capítulo 2); c) identificar o predomínio de evidências positivas decorrentes do uso das PIC em diferentes contextos de saúde bucal (capítulo 3); d) identificar que os estudantes de odontologia, nas instituições pesquisadas, consideram importante a incorporação do ensino das PIC durante o curso de graduação (capítulo 4); e) verificar que os artigos analisados apresentam superficialmente o modo como as entrevistas telefônicas (ET) foram planejadas e conduzidas sendo que o baixo custo e a necessidade de pequena infra-estrutura foram às principais justificativas para a opção da utilização das ET na coleta de dados qualitativos (capítulo 5); f) verificar que o assunto mais estudado foi à comparação de ED com outras técnicas de coleta de dados seguido de estudos sobre a viabilidade das ED e de estudos avaliativos de instrumentos para captação de dados por telefone (capítulo 6); g) verificar a existência da concentração de profissionais habilitados no Estado de São Paulo, identificar que a maioria desses pertence ao sexo feminino e que possui habilitação em Laserterpia (capítulo 7); h) identificar que a principal motivação para a busca das habilitações em PIC aplicadas a saúde bucal foi à curiosidade despertada por diferentes estímulos, sobretudo aqueles compreendidos nas demandas pessoais e profissionais (capítulo 8)
Abstract: The Resolution CFO-82/2008 released on 1 October 2008 lowered standards for habilitation of Dental Surgeons (DS) in Complementary and Integrative Practices (CIP) in Brazil. The aim of this study were to identify and analyze the available scientific evidence in the field of CIP in dentistry, as well as knowing the motivations of CD that led to the search for vetting in PIC. The research results were available in this thesis in eight chapters (articles). The first three chapters cover the elaboration process of systematic reviews that include dimensions beyond of clinical parameters and of clinical evidence of the use of CIP in buccal health. The fourth chapter deals with the perceptions of students of dentistry about the incorporation of the teaching of CIP during graduation. The fifth and sixth chapter presents the results of two systematic reviews of the literature concerning the capture of qualitative data through telephone interviews and through other types of interviews conducted at a distance. The seventh chapter presents the geographical distribution of DS habilitated in 2009 to exercise the CIP in Brazil. The eighth and final chapter consists of a qualitative study about the motivations of DS to get its habilitation in CIP. With the development of research was possible: a) expose to the scientific community a proposed methodology that goes beyond the compilation of clinical data and quantitative information that does not reach beyond the interventions and clinical outcomes (Chapter 1); b) identify that literature analyzed revealed higher number of published studies on dental laser therapy furthermore there is positive evidence of the use of CIP in dentistry, but the articles evaluated showed limitations regarding the quality and consistency of their results (Chapter 2); c) identify the prevalence of positive evidence from the use of CIP in different contexts of oral health (Chapter 3); d) identify that dental students in the institutions studied, considers important the incorporation of the teaching of the CIP during the undergraduate course (Chapter 4); e) verify that the analyzed articles presents superficially how the telephone interviews (TI) were planned and conducted thus the low cost and the need for small infrastructure were the main reasons for the choice of the use of TI in qualitative data collection (Chapter 5); f) verify that the most studied subject was the comparation of distance interviews (DI) with other techniques of data collection, followed by studies on the feasibility of DI and evaluative studies of instruments for data collection by phone (Chapter 6); g) verify the existence of the concentration of professionals in the State of Sao Paulo, identify the most of DS are female and has habilitation in Dental Laser therapy (Chapter 7); h) identify that the main motivation for the pursuit of habilitations in CIP applied to buccal health was curiosity aroused by different stimuli, especially those included in the personal and professional demands (Chapter 8)
