What is the current version of your research question?

  • What is the current version of your research question?
  • Reflect on the choice of interviewing as the data collection method for addressing your proposed study. Why might you choose interviewing over other qualitative data collection techniques (e.g., focus groups, observational data collection)?
  • Consider the kinds of questions you would like to ask. Are they personal? Embarrassing? Might they put your participants at risk? Provide some examples of the kinds of questions you would like to ask.
  • Identify one or more possible ethical considerations given the types of questions you would like to ask. For example, if you are asking someone to reflect on his or her experience as a drug addict, perhaps that person will reveal stories about hurting loved ones or breaking the law. How might you handle this?

Reflect on how well your research problem

Top of Form

Reflect on how well your research problem meets the “Litmus Test.” At this point, you recognize that this is a work in progress, so identify what could be done to reveal a research gap better.

The existing research problem is to know who your friends are and friends are determined through Knowing of those who love doing the quizzes.  The best way to come up with the friends that are going to help a person especially when it comes to matters of academic is through the use of a litmus paper test.  Litmus paper is very vital in researching this problem that is existing in many of the schools.  The operation of the litmus paper is just simple, and it occurs when a person is asked whether he likes academic work in general.  Those that will say yes then they should automatically become the friends since they will help a person to grow academically. Those that are going to say no means that they will have failed the test, and through this, a person is not supposed to have such friends.  If a person wants to excel in any field, he must work with people who have the same interest.  Therefore when a person is choosing friends, they must be cautious since they will have impacts on the person.

Impacts can either be positive and negative because of the traits that these friends have. Litmus paper test is critical in carrying out this research and in most cases it is beneficial when it comes to such circumstances, (Said, et al, 2020).

     Summarize the skills and subject matter areas you will need to master to expertly respond to the qualitative checklist for Chapters 1 through 3.

Description of the overall problem that is in any research there is a massive problem that in most cases it is not known, it is also to be chosen from the area that a person is interested in. The project addresses the problem that should be urgent, and each and every one should be aware that you are researching that direction. The researcher must be ready to summarizing the key questions. Many questions are always crossing the mind of the researcher when it comes to research questions. A person must be in a position of knowing how to identify the description of the problem.

The local problem that prompted the study should be localized, and through this, a person is always in a position to make sure that those that are near the research is happening should be aware since through  this one is in a  position to get first-hand information in which most of the cases happens to  have some indigenous knowledge that may not be written

Criteria for selecting participants is critical that a person should be having so that the intended population will be the one that will be targeted and it will be the one that is useful in research.

There should always be a Justification for the problem. There are so many problems that happen in the world, and people must be in a position of causing justification of the problem.  These are the reasons that made you choose that very particular research project. Any project and research that it has been taken, there are always Implications of the project. The research project should not be in a position whereby it is having many negative implications than negative ones, (Monaghan, et al, 2020).

·        Propose a research question to be developed throughout the rest of this course.

Throughout the research course, I had come up with some research questions.  These research questions may include; what is the relationship between the students attending classes and their general performance?, (Wolfe, et al, 2019).

Psychological Injuries

 Becky Williams works on a road crew for the City of Palm Springs. She often works early in the morning to repair potholes on the busy streets. One day, a vehicle sped through the construction zone and veered off the road, pinning Becky between the vehicle and a work truck. Becky was trapped for an hour while emergency crews freed her. As a result of the incident, Becky suffered tremendous physical damages, including the amputation of both of her legs. Becky filed a civil suit; her attorney asked for damages to compensate Becky for her physical injuries as well as for the trauma caused by the accident. At the trial, evidence was presented as to the medical costs, lost wages, and loss of future earning capacities. Discuss any issues Becky’s attorney may have in presenting her case for psychological injuries.

Challenges to Cross-Cultural Research

Challenges to cross-cultural research are ample and significant. Pragmatic issues may preclude long term immersion in the culture due to financial issues or lack of sufficient time. Additionally, translation issues may make it difficult to achieve a one-to-one correspondence on questionnaire items used in multiple cultures and languages. Additionally, there are often delicate negotiations across gender, age, status, religious, and economic backgrounds that can involve power and privilege in ways that require careful and appropriate discussion to resolve ethically and to preserve the integrity of the research, researchers, and research participants. As you move forward in your future professional work, take the time to consider the challenges researchers face in light of the growing need to further understand the diverse cultures in the world at large. You will find that this type of research will be critically important to further your professional growth and knowledge.

Examine the challenges to cross-cultural research.

 

Post and explain three major challenges to conducting cross-cultural research. Then, suggest one way to solve one of the challenges.

Note: Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources and identify current relevant literature to support your work.

 

Discussion 2: Advantages and Disadvantages of Different Methods in Cross-Cultural Research

In cross-cultural psychology research, a broad range of techniques is utilized to determine the best way to access critical data. Each technique has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, laboratory experiments may offer great control and ability to examine issues of cause and effect, but may not always reflect actual real-world conditions, especially in cross-cultural situations. As an additional example, long-term fieldwork and interviews conducted by living in a given cultural setting for a year or two may offer the possibility of many nuanced observations, yet such qualitative work will not lead to statistical or experimental designs. Each method tends to have pros and cons, rather than one method being the “right” one for every situation. For this Discussion, you will explore the advantages and disadvantages of using different research methods in cross-cultural research.

 

Post and explain one advantage and one disadvantage of quantitative research for cross-cultural psychology. Then, describe one advantage and one disadvantage of qualitative research for cross-cultural psychology. Use examples from the studies provided to support your thinking.

Note: Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources and identify current relevant literature to support your work.
