Pick one of the four types of triangulation. Explain its parts subtypes (if applicable), and describe how it could be used.
(74) 
VerifiedThe four types of triangulation are data, investigator, theory, and methodological. Data triangulation has three subtypes: time, space, and person. Person analysis has three sublevels: aggregate, interactive, and collectivity. Investigator triangulation consists of using multiple rather than single observers of the same object. Investigator triangulation is used when multiple researchers collect data, either for interview or participant observation. Theory triangulation consists of using multiple rather than simple perspectives in relation to the same set of objects. Methodological triangulation can entail within-method triangulation and between-method triangulation. Triangulation increases the depth of understanding a single investigation can yield.
The technique of using multiple lines of sight, or an array of symbols and theoretical content to create a better research result, or picture of reality, is called ________.
(84) VerifiedA
The goal of good research is to systematically discover answers to questions that a researcher has posed. How does qualitative research find answers to questions?
(80) VerifiedQualitative research answers research questions by observing social settings and the groups or individuals who inhabit them to determine how people make sense of their surroundings using social roles, norms, rituals, and social structures. Researchers look for patterns, but do not reduce pattern to the average behavior at the risk of misrepresenting and oversimplifying a population. The researchers often immerse themselves in the community studied to participate, and share in the understandings/perceptions of others with the goal of seeing how people structure and give meanings to their lives.
Triangulation can be used to describe the use of multiple methods of data collection to measure a single subject. What is it called when multiple data-collection methods, multiple theories, multiple researchers, multiple methodologies, or a combination of these four categories are involved in research activities?
(71) The author viewed himself as a pioneer in the field of qualitative research because _______.
(74) The twenty-statement test is created to empirically measure the self-designation of an individual through defining categories of self-concepts. Breaking down a research concept into a definition and a way to measure it is referred to as ________.
(88) A researcher uses empirical data collection techniques to provider reliable and verifiable data in large aggregates through statistical testing. What methodology is this researcher using?
(74) A researcher examines the naturally occurring language and meanings that people give to their life experiences with a focus on emotions, motivations, symbols, and empathy. What methodology is this researcher using?
(96) A researcher uses idiographic method to understand the world with the two-part goal of exploring a specific situation or event, and inspecting the data collected to describe life and behavior. What methodology is this researcher using?
(79) The founder of the Iowa School of Symbolic Interactionism is _______.
(89) Compare and contrast the basic premises of the Chicago School of Symbolic Interactionism, and the Iowa School of Symbolic Interactionism.
(79) A researcher follows the principles of logical positivism, and seeks to create specific operational definitions of the concepts they test. The people and objects do not possess meaning independently, but it is rather conferred upon them. What methodology is this researcher using?
(90) Name eight ways to collect qualitative data. Explain how the book will address each, and what dimension is important to consider for each type.
(77) The researcher who coined the term symbolic interaction is _________.
(65) When observing from three known points of view, the area where all three lines of sight intersect is called the ________.
(91) The Chicago school of symbolic interaction proposes that people account for meaning in two ways. Meaning can be intrinsically attached to an object or event. Secondly, people can impose meaning on the object, event, or phenomenon. What is this second way of deriving meaning called?
