For independent scholars, determining alignment among the key components of the qualitative prospectus is an important task within the research process.
Ensuring proper alignment among the problem statement, purpose statement, and research question(s) increases the prospect of your research contributing significantly to the scholarly conversation on your research topic.
Also, assessing alignment among these critical components in extant literature will provide the knowledge required to ensure proper alignment in future research you may conduct throughout your professional career.
To prepare for this Discussion, choose one of the three qualitative studies that you analyzed for your Assignment in Week 2, and consider how the key components of this study-problem statement, purpose statement, conceptual framework, research question(s), and interview questions-did or did not align within the overall study.
Post an assessment of your chosen qualitative study utilized in Week 2. Your assessment should include the following:
Briefly describe key components of your chosen article: problem statement, purpose statement, conceptual framework, research question(s), and interview questions. (Note: You will attach a copy of this study to your Discussion post.)
Analyze the alignment between these components, including areas of misalignment.
Explain the level of alignment between these specific components, including areas that may be lacking.
Recommend at least one change that could improve alignment within this study, including a rationale for your recommendation.
Be sure to support your work with a minimum of two specific citations from this week's Learning Resources and at least one additional scholarly source.
