TL;DR: This paper found that a mix of personal resiliency, interpersonal capacities, and social resources facilitated women in their successful re-entry after release from prison, and suggested practice and policy changes to assist women in the transition from institution to community.
Abstract: Eighteen female ex-prison inmates describe the strengths they used to manage their reentry after release from prison. As a group, the women stressed that a mix of personal resiliency, interpersonal capacities, and social resources facilitated their successful transition. On the basis of study findings, the author suggests practice and policy changes to assist women in the transition from institution to community.

TL;DR: In this article, an analytischer Bezugsrahmen vorgestellt, der insbesondere Noviz(inn)en im Feld qualitativer Forschung helfen soll, zum einige Gemeinsamkeiten qualITativer Datenanalyse kennenzulernen.
Abstract: In dem vorliegenden Beitrag wird ein analytischer Bezugsrahmen vorgestellt, der insbesondere Noviz(inn)en im Feld qualitativer Forschung helfen soll, zum einen einige Gemeinsamkeiten qualitativer Datenanalyse kennenzulernen. Zum anderen sollen sie aufmerksam gemacht werden auf Differenzen, die insbesondere mit dem Kontext der Anwendung und mit den erkenntnistheoretischen Praferenzen bzw. mit der Expertise der Forschenden einhergehen. Es geht dabei nicht darum, spezielle Datenanalyseverfahren vorzustellen, sondern es werden Fragen an die Hand gegeben, die in verschiedenen Phasen des Auswertungsprozesses sinnvoll gestellt werden sollten. Hierzu gehe ich davon aus, dass qualitative Datenanalyse – unabhangig etwa von der jeweiligen methodologischen oder disziplinaren Orientierung – vier miteinander verknupfte Phasen beinhaltet: die Konzeption der Studie, die Klassifikation von Daten, das Herstellen von Bezugen bzw. die Entwicklung einer Theorie und schlieslich die Niederschrift der Befunde. Der vorliegende Beitrag bezieht sich auf die Phasen 1 bis 3. URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0103226

TL;DR: The argument presented is that content validity requires a mixed methods approach since data are developed through qualitative and quantitative methods that inform each other and provides feedback on the effectiveness of the ToS through a process of determining consensus.
Abstract: There is paucity of detailed information in the literature on how to develop procedures for estimating content validity to increase trustworthiness of assessment instruments. The authors present three unique examples, interpretation, and application of Tables of Specifications (ToS) for generating these estimates. The development and logic of the ToS requires presenting evidence that has transparency and creates trustworthiness in the validity estimates by maintaining an audit trail and using of triangulation, expert debriefing, and peer review. The argument presented is that content validity requires a mixed methods approach since data are developed through qualitative and quantitative methods that inform each other. This process is iterative and provides feedback on the effectiveness of the ToS through a process of determining consensus.

TL;DR: The findings revealed that approximately one third of the sample had some experience with trading sex, whether it was in the form of having traded sex, having been propositioned to trade sex but having refused, or having friends or acquaintances that had traded sex.
Abstract: This study examined the circumstances surrounding a homeless youth's “decision “ to trade sex for food, money, shelter, or drugs. Forty homeless youth in 4 Midwestern states participated in individual, in‐depth qualitative interviews. Interviewers recruited youth through both service agencies and street outreach. The findings revealed that approximately one third of the sample had some experience with trading sex, whether it was in the form of having traded sex, having been propositioned to trade sex but having refused, or having friends or acquaintances that had traded sex. Young people's reports indicated that they had traded sex for things they deemed necessary in order to survive (i.e., food, shelter, money, or drugs) and that they did not want to trade sex, but did so because they were desperate and lacked alternatives. Additionally, others were coerced, manipulated, or forced to do so, indicating that the decision to trade sex is not always voluntary. We discuss the implications of these findings in...

TL;DR: The use of reliability and validity are common in quantitative research and now it is reconsidered in the qualitative research paradigm as discussed by the authors, which can also illuminate some ways to test or maximize the validity and reliability of a qualitative study.
Abstract: The use of reliability and validity are common in quantitative research and now it is reconsidered in the qualitative research paradigm. Since reliability and validity are rooted in positivist perspective then they should be redefined for their use in a naturalistic approach. Like reliability and validity as used in quantitative research are providing springboard to examine what these two terms mean in the qualitative research paradigm, triangulation as used in quantitative research to test the reliability and validity can also illuminate some ways to test or maximize the validity and reliability of a qualitative study. Therefore, reliability, validity and triangulation, if they are relevant research concepts, particularly from a qualitative point of view, have to be redefined in order to reflect the multiple ways of establishing truth. Key words: Reliability, Validity, Triangulation, Construct, Qualitative, and Quantitative This article discusses the use of reliability and validity in the qualitative research paradigm. First, the meanings of quantitative and qualitative research are discussed. Secondly, reliability and validity as used in quantitative research are discussed as a way of providing a springboard to examining what these two terms mean and how they can be tested in the qualitative research paradigm. This paper concludes by drawing upon the use of triangulation in the two paradigms (quantitative and qualitative) to show how the changes have influenced our understanding of reliability, validity and triangulation in qualitative studies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a variety of techniques for theme discovery in qualitative research, ranging from quick word counts to laborious, in-depth, line-by-line scrutiny.
Abstract: Theme identification is one of the most fundamental tasks in qualitative research. It also is one of the most mysterious. Explicit descriptions of theme discovery are rarely found in articles and reports, and when they are, they are often relegated to appendices or footnotes. Techniques are shared among small groups of social scientists, but sharing is impeded by disciplinary or epistemological boundaries. The techniques described here are drawn from across epistemological and disciplinary boundaries. They include both observational and manipulative techniques and range from quick word counts to laborious, in-depth, line-by-line scrutiny. Techniques are compared on six dimensions: (1) appropriateness for data types, (2) required labor, (3) required expertise, (4) stage of analysis, (5) number and types of themes to be generated, and (6) issues of reliability and validity.

TL;DR: In fact, most of the archaeologically recoverable information about human thought and human behavior is text, the good stuff of social science as mentioned in this paper, which is what we use in this paper.
Abstract: This chapter is about methods for managing and analyzing qualitative data. By qualitative data the authors mean text: newspapers, movies, sitcoms, e-mail traffic, folktales, life histories. They also mean narratives--narratives about getting divorced, about being sick, about surviving hand-to-hand combat, about selling sex, about trying to quit smoking. In fact, most of the archaeologically recoverable information about human thought and human behavior is text, the good stuff of social science.
