Firstly, the researcher will begin with a brief explanation of postmodernism as an ontology, which prescribes the nature of reality. Thereafter, social constructionism as an epistemology, which specifies the nature of the relationship between the researcher and the study, will be described followed by a discussion of how social constructionism informs the present study. Then, the focus will shift to the actualisation of the epistemological assumptions through the chosen methodology for this study. This will entail an explanation of the chosen research paradigm, namely qualitative research, and a discussion of the correlation between the epistemology and the research paradigm. Thereafter, the characteristics of qualitative research and how these relate to the proposed study will be clarified. This will include a discussion on reliability and validity, the roles of participant and researcher, sampling and selection, data collection, and the interpretation of the stories through thematic content analysis.","PeriodicalId":213583,"journal":{"name":"The Visoko Chronicle","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134254161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
