  • PM 458: Qualitative Research

    3.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    A community¿s health is not just determined by individual health behaviors, but also by cultural beliefs and forms of social organization. Traditional quantitative methodologies, which have been so powerful in understanding biological phenomena, have limited explanatory power in analyzing socio-cultural phenomena. Qualitative methods, long used in the social sciences, allow for the collection, analysis, and interpretation of social and cultural data that quantitative methods cannot adequately reach. In addition, qualitative methods can function as an essential adjunct to quantitative methods by hypothesis generation or identifying lay terminology for accurate survey developed. This course will cover standard qualitative methodologies through a discussion of relevant literature, class exercises, and a class project
