Regarding the research plan, address the following:
What are the best sources for finding participants who fit your criteria for inclusion in the sample?
Who do you need to contact to get permission to distribute your announcement?

Assignments:
In Week 7, you will finish Step II of the Final Project; you started this step in Week 6. To complete Step II, do the following:
BY DAY 7
Revise your interview instrument based on the feedback you receive from your classmates and Instructor.
Prepare a document that includes the following components:
A brief description of how you will recruit two participants
A protocol that includes the invitation, informed consent (using the verbatim document from the Walden IRB), interview guide (revised based on feedback from your Instructor and classmates), closing statement, and peer debrief paragraph R8360 Final Project: Building a Qualitative Research Plan
The purpose of the final project is to develop knowledge and practice skills that will prepare you for developing a qualitative dissertation proposal. In fact, most of
the assignments closely parallel the requirements for a qualitative research proposal as described in the Qualitative Checklist. This process is a hands-on
opportunity to develop an idea of interest or passion into a research plan. This includes intensive work on the alignment of your problem statement, purpose
statement and research question with a qualitative approach; developing an interview guide; practice conducting an interview; and preparing and analyzing data.
At the end of this assignment, you will also be asked to reflect on what you’ve learned, and what you make carry forward with you to the dissertation.
Beginning in Week 5 and extending through the rest of the course, you will work on the components that constitute your Final Project. The Final Project will be
produced in a stepwise fashion, and each week you will be working on a new step. You’ll receive feedback from your classmates and instructor on each step that
you will incorporate into the final document.
Be sure to watch the Final Project Guidelines video included in this week’s Media Resources in preparation for Final Project Step I.
The Final Project is comprised of the following six steps. These are presented in the video, and the instructions for each step are described in detail in the week
each occurs. Use this list and the table to plan your time, and anticipate the due dates for each component and the final project.

Office of Research and Compliance: IRB Requirements for Selecting Participants
Please note the following conditions for all COURSE-BASED data collection projects:
• Students may only interview adult family members or acquaintances. No strangers may be recruited for this training activity.
• Students may not seek out protected populations such as children, prisoners, residents of any facility, or mentally/emotionally disabled individuals for this
project unless they have obtained IRB approval using the standard full review process via forms found at the university’s IRB website (which takes a
minimum of 6 weeks). Note that this does NOT mean the student should ask the interviewee if s/he has a disability. The policy is simply that students may
not seek out protected populations for this training exercise. If a student wishes to practice an interview that is designed for a people in a protected class
(i.e., children), then the student will need to ask an adult friend to roleplay the part of the participant.
• Students are required to store their project data in electronic format (e.g., Word, Excel, SPSS, Nvivo, etc.) for the duration of their course and then must
dispose of the data at the time final grades are assigned.
• Students must de-identify the data as soon as is realistically possible to minimize risk of inappropriate disclosure of personal information. De-identification
consists of removing all direct identifiers such as names, addresses, or telephone numbers from the raw data and database. Students must take
precautions to not disclose to anyone else (including the instructor) any part of the data that is linkable to a participant’s identity.
• Payments, compensation, reimbursement, free services, or extra credit or other gifts may NOT be preferentially given to the project participants. This is to
ensure voluntary participation.
• Interview data generated by this training assignment is not eligible for inclusion in the dissertation or any other study.

Interview Guide Worksheet
1. Restate the RQ, and define the phenomenon of interest.
2. Review your literature on the phenomena of interest.
7. For each question you ask, follow up with one or more of the following
probes (probing questions encourage the participant to describe specific
events and examples of the phenomena).
• Identify recurring patterns, conflicting ideas, or unique findings
• Can you give me a specific example of …?
• Choose 3 to 5 of these as potential topics for developing questions
• Tell me about a typical day when [the phenomenon] happens to you?
• Identify keywords and phrases that will form the basis of your
questions.
• What did that experience mean to you?
3. Review your theoretical/conceptual framework
• Identify 3 to 5 concepts or assumptions that are fundamental
to the framework
• Identify keywords and phrases that will form the basis of your
questions.
4. Review methodological sources of your approach.
• What are the structural or key points that need to be included
in the interview guide so that it is consistent with the
approach?
5. Arrange the literature topics, framework concepts and methodological
points into beginning, middle and end of interview.
6. Modify each concept so that it becomes an open-ended question. Use
these guidelines as well as Patton’s examples (Chapter 7) to make sure the
phenomenon of interest is thoroughly investigated.
8. Formulate an introduction to the interview. Start with an accessible, answerable question.
• Begin the interview with a “warm-up” question—something that the
respondent can answer easily and at some length (though not too
long). Make sure the question pertains to the phenomenon of interest,
and will put you and the participant more at ease with one another to
make the rest of the interview flow more smoothly.
9. Review the concepts questions, and consider which concepts will be hard to
talk about? Embarrassing? Move these concepts towards the middle of the
interview.
10. Consider how you want to close the interview (“Is there anything else you’d
like to share with me before we finish this interview?”). What can you say that
will let the participant know they were “heard” and respected?
11. What do you need to communicate to the participant to “debrief”? This
typically includes (1) how you will get in touch in order to have the participant
verify the accuracy of the interview; and (2) what you will share with the
participant once the study is completed.
• Make every question open-ended.
• Make every question neutral. Avoid leading questions, and avoid using
words that direct how the participant should answer.
• Ask only one question at a time.
• Make sure that the content of the question is consistent with
the participant’s level of education and culture.
