Example text
Ours is a discipline drawing on many different traditions of academic enquiry. The research design (or methodology) is distinct from the methods used for data collection. A single data collection method, for example interview or observation, may be used for many different research designs. So we can return to our hypothetical questions generated in questions 1–3 above, and consider the research methodology that might be appropriate to answer each one. In the example relating to pelvic floor exercises for pregnant women, Q1(a) and Q1(b) are both essentially asking for information that can be gathered in a quantitative survey, but Q1(a) might also be answered by observation of antenatal classes, or examination of the women’s records.
Contrary to many people’s expectations, computer software analysis packages such as NVivo (for qualitative analysis) and SPSS (for quantitative analysis) do not do the analysis, they simply provide practical tools to manage the data more easily. The researcher still has to manage and guide the process, and do some serious thinking about the meaning of the data. If the data collected are qualitative, data analysis techniques such as those described in Chapter 34 can be used. The exact methods used will vary according to the qualitative methodology adopted.
