The Anthropological Strategy
Questions with confirmed answers.
, Question 1
A. What are the disadvantages of qualitative research?
It is challenging to apply conventional standards of reliability and validity in qualitative research.
The findings cannot be replicated or generalized to a broader context.
Qualitative research requires a great deal of time for the collection of data, analysis and
interpretation.
The researcher influences the research participants, and this can lead to biases.
B. Identify the three paradigmatic styles of ethnography and briefly outline the key components of
each.

The semiotic paradigm:
This emphasizes the point of view of the research participants.

This involves identifying some functionality relevant aspects and then supporting the theoretical
framework with observational data.
