Identify the technique used to discover the themes in the data below.
In a study of birth planning in China, Greenhalgh (in Ryan and Bernard, 2003) surveyed
1,011 ever-married women, gathered social and economic histories from 150 families. She
conducted in-depth interviews with present and formal officials (known as cadres), and
collected documentary evidence from local newspapers, journals and other sources.
Greenhalgh notes that "Because I was largely constrained from asking direct questions
about resistance, the informal record of field notes, interview transcripts, and questionnaire
data contains few overt challenges to state policy." Greenhalgh concludes, however, that
their conversations with the researchers, both peasants and cadres made strategic use of
silence to protest aspects of the policy they did not like. Cadres, for example were loathe to
comment on birth-planning campaigns; peasant women were reluctant to talk about
sterilization. These silences form one part of the unofficial record of birth planning in the
villages. More explicit protests were registered in informal conversations. From these
interactions emerged a sense of profound distress of villagers forced to choose between a
resistance that was politically risky and a compliance that violated the norms of Chinese
culture and of practical reason.

Identify the technique used to discover the themes in the data below.
Naomi Quinn (in Ryan and Bernard, 2003) has analyzed hundreds of hours of interviews to
discover concepts underlying American marriage and to show how these concepts are tied
together. She began by looking at patterns of speech and at the repetition of key words and
phrases, paying particular attention to informants' use of metaphors and the commonalities
in their reasoning about marriage. Nan, one of her informants, says that "marriage is a
manufactured product." This popular metaphor indicates that Nan sees marriages as
something that has properties, like strength and staying power, and as something that
requires work to produce. Some marriages are "put together well," while others "fall apart"
like so many cars or toys or washing machines.

Identify the technique used to discover the themes in the data below.
Spradley (in Ryan and Bernard, 2003) recorded conversations among tramps at informal
gatherings, meals, card games, and bull sessions. As the men talked to each other about
their experiences, there were many references to making a flop. Spradley combed through
his recorded material and notes looking for verbatim statements made by informants about
his topic. On analyzing the statements, he found that most of the statements could fit into
subcategories such as kinds of flops, ways to make flops, ways to make your own flop, kinds
of people who bother you when you flop, ways to make a bed, and kinds of beds. Spradley
then returned to his informants and sought additional information from them on each of
the subcategories.

Interview Segment
Q: What are your views on homelessness?
A: Well, I think it’s a terrible thing that in a modern society we have a problem such as this. I
don’t know though what we can do about it. I want to do something but I don’t know what.
You are constantly reminded of the problem if you go to town. They are always there asking
for money. You don’t know though if they really need it or if they are in fact doing quite well
from begging. But if you have any caring qualities you can’t ignore requests for help, when
you have so much for yourself. They say a lot of people choose to live on the streets – well I
don’t believe that. I think that is an easy thing for the authorities to say – it lets them off the
hook. So really I guess the answer to your questions is that I am not sure what to think
about homelessness. I feel that something should be done but I feel powerless to do
anything personally. I think that the time has come for the government to do something. It
makes me feel uncomfortable; I don’t know what to do.

Choose the correct qualitative research design used in the following examples.
Edwards (2007) explored the process of college men’s gender identity development. In
order to try to meet these expectations and be seen as men, participants described putting
on a performance that was like wearing a mask or “putting my man face on.” This process
included learning societal expectations of them as men, as well as specific cultural group
expectations. The men in this study were all aware that they did not neatly fit behind the
mask, either as a result of personal characteristics or social identities. Their resulting
insecurities led them to wearing the mask both consciously and unconsciously so that they
would be seen as men by society.
