Abstract

Identifying the best research design to fit the question.Part 2: qualitative designs Qualitative research methods have become increasingly important as ways of developing nursing knowledge for evidence-based nursing practice.Qualitative research answers a wide variety of questions related to nursing's concern with human responses to actual or potential health problems.The purpose of qualitative research is to describe, explore, and explain phenomena being studied. 1 Qualitative research questions often take the form of what is this? or what is happening here?and are more concerned with the process rather than the outcome. 2 This editorial provides an overview of qualitative research, describes 3 common types of qualitative research, and gives examples of their use in nursing.
