Problem:
Base your responses on at least four current scholarly sources, of which two are articles from peer-reviewed journals. Cite references used according to APA 6th edition. Include an APA-formatted reference list. Insert your reference list at the end of each document. Select three published qualitative research studies in your field. One must be a case study, one must be a phenomenological study, and one must be either a grounded theory or ethnographic study. Each of the three studies must be current in the field and published in a peer-reviewed journal.
Note. Do not use dissertations or articles used in previous assignments in this class.
