Qualitative Research Questions
Central question: The overarching question you explore in the research study
Sub-questions: Divides the central question into smaller, specific questions◦ Narrow the focus of the central question into specific
issues (academic gaps) ◦ Indicate the steps to be used in analyzing the data in a
qualitative study
Interview questions: Questions that are asked during your interview that are based on your sub-questions and central question

Developing Qualitative Research Questions
Central Question Script: (usually write only one)
“What are the experiences of _________ (participants) as they make meaning of__________ (central phenomenon/academic gap)?“
“How and in what ways _________ (participants) describe __________ (central phenomenon/academic gap)?“
Sub-Question Script:
“(What) ______________ (aspect) does ______
(participant) engage in as a _____________(central
Phenomenon/academic gap)?”

Observations
Detailed, comprehensive description of participants
Collect sufficient data in the field to be able to identify patterns, sometimes develop theory
Define a research problem, identify participants in a particular setting, document a process, complement interviews etc. (Angrosino, 2007)
![Page 25: Tips for Qualitative Research - Nova Southeastern UniversityTips for Qualitative Research Dr. Charlene Désir 2016 Summer Institute cdesir@nova.edu 954-262-8488](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed74714d37f9f58ca6a992a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Fieldnotes & Observation Tool
Only direct quotes should be in quote marks
Rather than characterizing conversation, be specific about words, expressions, gestures
Be mindful of ethics: don’t record anything you believe person would consider private
Protect the privacy of those you quote: if there is anything that indicates his/her name, don’t use it—use pseudonym instead
