This paper is a case study of my experiences as a quantitative researcher who taught myself to teach qualitative research at the Ph.D. level. I share my processes of learning qualitative epistemologies, research designs, data collection methods, and reporting styles. I included conceptual schemas, bibliographies, and other resources for teaching qualitative research in the hope that my work will be helpful to others who want to learn to teach qualitative research methods.

This case study is part of a larger, ongoing project that considers exemplars to explore successful aging among individuals who require some form of long-term care. The project departs from narrow, decontextualized operationalizations of successful aging to begin to develop holistic conceptualizations that involve the daily, multifaceted lives of elders in their families. The project also departs from the dominant misery perspective that emphasizes deficits, ill- ness, and decline in old age. Instead, it contributes to developing a resource perspective that seeks to maximize human adaptation, assets, and skills in later life. This project seeks to understand the dynamics and spirit of successful aging, as this process is illustrated by individual elders who are, in spite of severe disability and the need for ongoing services, identified by their colleagues as role mod- els, as exemplars of successful aging.

While the range and nature of Canadian women's work has varied at times and places due to a variety of factors, that work has usually contributed to the family economy. The discussion here focuses on women who were married during the period from just prior to the First World War until the end of the Second World War. Data were gathered from a sample of 22 ever-married women using unstructured face-to-face interviews. Immersion and crystallization were used to analyze the data. Similarities were found in women's experiences during early transitions in marriage, including the marriage bar and making ends meet. Fairly quickly, however, the effect of socioeconomic status became more salient. Four categories of women's experiences were identified, including volunteer work, paid work for extras, necessary but hidden paid work, and family provisioning by single women. It is apparent from this study that women's work included not only paid and unpaid work, but Goffmanian labor that contributed to their families' class and status

In this paper, we explored the effects of doing research on seven researchers engaged in a study of couple decision-making. While not focused on oppression of women in marital decision-mak- ing, our interviews revealed a great deal of it. The seven members of our research team were affected, with age, marital status, and prior attitudes accounting for much of the variation in how deeply research- ers were affected. This study explores these issues and makes practi- cal and theoretical points about their importance.

This paper presents my reflections as a graduate student writing a qualitative dissertation. The lessons learned in the process of hermeneutic interpretive research changed the way I investigate nearly everything. The power of positivism was deeply embedded in my beliefs about what real research looks like, my thinking about why and how research is done, and my language about how research is expressed and communicated to others. Because hermeneutic study seeks to make meaning of words and narrative and to gain understanding, it is a powerful tool to study intact texts. This article poses questions that may be helpful to novice and veteran researchers undertaking interpretive research.

In this multiply-authored account, five academicians discuss the connections between their work as clinicians and their clinical qualitative research. Each saw connections between practice and research, and each in her or his own domain of interest has found that practice informs research and research informs practice. This article also introduces three major types of qualitative clinical family research: conversational analysis, recursive frame analysis, and hermeneutic phenomenology.

Poverty is linked to disparity in families access to basic human services and an incapacity to fulfill basic needs. The study described in this paper uses a qualitative research design to address the ecology of service use in the family within the broader social and physical environment. While the focus of this paper relates to the methodology of the study, some substantive results are used for illustrative purposes. Through an in-depth study of families in the contexts of their neighborhoods, our task is to search for patterns and their meanings. This process may uncover the motives and beliefs underlying service use and access among the families in our study.

This article suggests that theory and story can be effectively linked in interpretive family life education programs and illustrates this potential by discussing how personal narrative accounts of fathers encounters with their children can be used to understand and encourage good fathering (herein referred to as generative fathering). The article (a) presents a theory of how fathers change and the implications of this theory for the use of fathers narrative accounts in interpretive family life education, (b) briefly discusses the concept of generative fathering and presents a conceptual framework for understanding and encouraging generative fathering, and (c) illustrates the potential utility of narrative accounts in encouraging generative fathering in family life education with accounts collected from fathers. Although the method applied herein is not, in the strictest sense, qualitative research, it illustrates how qualitative methodology can be applied to family life education.

This paper reports on the design of a study using pro- cedures of modified analytic induction to investigate how courtroom procedures followed or did not follow child support guidelines. Using concepts from principles of procedural fairness and distribu- tive justice, the research team coded transcripts of public hearings on child support guidelines. This paper reports on work in progress and does not report results or conclusions. The coded examples of justiceprinciples demonstrate how procedures of modified analytic induc- tion lead to the refinement of conceptual definitions when tested against lived experiences.
