This is for Philosophy class. I have attached the files down below on how to do to write and I have also included articles. 5 pages for qualitative and 5 pages for quantitative.

Aspect of the Report

Critiquing Questions

Purpose

·       What was the study purpose?

Method

Research design and research tradition

·       Is the identified research tradition (if any) congruent with the methods used to collect and analyze data?

·       Was an adequate amount of time spent in the field or with study participants?

·       Was there evidence of reflexivity in the design?

Sample and Sampling Methods

·       Was the group or population of interest adequately described? Were the setting and sample described in sufficient detail?

·       Was the best possible method of sampling used to enhance information richness and address the needs of the study?

·       Was the sample size adequate? Was saturation achieved?

Data collection

·       Were the methods of gathering data appropriate? Were data gathered through two or more methods to achieve triangulation?

·       Did the researcher ask the right questions or make the right observations?

·       Do the researchers’ clinical, substantive, or methodologic qualifications and experience enhance confidence in the findings and their interpretation?

Data analysis

·       Was the data analysis strategy compatible with the research tradition and with the nature and type of data gathered?

·       Did the analysis yield an appropriate “product” (e.g., a theory, taxonomy, thematic pattern, etc.)?

·       Did the analytic procedures suggest the possibility of biases?

Results/ Major

Findings
