Module 3 Assignment 1

Conclusion

In this module, you took a closer look at two of the three types of research design: qualitative and mixed-methods. You also considered the role of research within the program evaluation process. Additionally, you discovered that both qualitative and mixed-methods designs play a valuable role in forensic psychology research as understanding the phenomenon and mind-set of both the offender and victim is invaluable when working in this field because the unique experiences and behaviors of people go beyond what we can detect through quantitative data alone.
