Purpose: This article explored issues arising from secondary analysis of qualitative data and analyzed the results of qualitative secondary analysis studies published in English, focusing on the methodological aspects. Method: A total of 29 studies were identified as qualitative secondary analysis studies, retrieving from the CINAHL database from 1982 to 3rd week of April 2003. These studies were analyzed by publication year, research method, and type of approach to secondary analysis. Result: The year that the qualitative secondary analysis study first published was 1992 and the number of the studies using secondary analysis has increased after the middle of 1990s. Grounded theory was the one the most frequently used(n=11, 37.9%) and phenomenological study the second most(n=6, 20.7%). In terms of types of approach, fifteen studies(51.7%) focused on the specific concepts that were not explored in the primary studies. Nine(31.0%) focused on the specific types of participants. Six were aimed to integrate contexts or perspectives to generate more general and abstract analysis of qualitative data. Conclusion: The results of this article will stimulate methodological discussion of qualitative secondary analysis and activate qualitative studies using secondary analysis.

In the context of Korean educational research, the number of qualitative research studies has gradually increased since 2000. It has become one of the most important research methods today. The field of math education is no exception to this trend, and qualitative approaches are now becoming one of the main research methods. This increase in qualitative research has contributed to the provision of detailed information about educational practice, but at the same time, the overall level of credibility in the results of qualitative research seems to be lower than that of quantitative research. This study started with the problem consciousness that the number of qualitative studies is increasing in the field of mathematical education, but there is a lack of discussion on the methodology of applying qualitative research methods. In this study, among the papers published in the journal related to mathematical education, papers using a qualitative approach are analyzed focusing on cross-case analysis. Based on the analysis results, the tendency to use qualitative approaches is diagnosed, ways of improving the validity and trustworthiness of qualitative research results in the field of mathematical education are examined, and implications and suggestions are presented.

90년대 중후반 이후 질적 연구법이 우리나라에서 본격적으로 소개되기 시작한 이후, 질적 연구물의 수는 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 그러한 변화에도 불구하고, 우리의 연구 맥락에서 실제로 적용된 질적 연구물에 대한 분석이나 방법론적 논의는 매우 미흡한 것으로 보인다. 이러한 문제의식에서 본 연구는 출발하였다. 구체적으로 본 연구는, 수학교육에서 질적 연구방법을 어떻게 적용하고 있는지를 분석하여, 향후 질적 연구법을 활용하고자 하는 연구자들에게 연구에서 의도한 목적 달성과 연구 결과의 질적 향상에 도움이 될 수 있는 방법론적 시사점을 제시하고자 한다. 이러한 연구 목적을 성취하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 한국수학교육학회의 학회지인 '초등수학교육'에서 질적 연구방법을 활용하여 2012년 게재된 논문 5편을 대상으로 샘플링 선정, 자료 수집 및 자료 분석 방법 등을 중심으로 세밀하게 분석하여, 그 결과와 논의점을 질적으로 제시하고 있다.

본 연구는 한국 사회복지학에서의 엄격성과 관련된 질적 연구자의 경험을 심층 분석하여 향후 과제를 논의하고자 한 것이다. 이를 위해 질적 연구방법으로 학위논문을 쓰거나 학술지에 질적 연구를 활발히 발표하고 있는 질적 연구자 9명을 연구참여자로 선정하여 개별 및 포커스그룹인터뷰를 실시하였다. 또한 연구결과보고에 엄격성이 어떠한 형태로 글쓰기 되는지를 보고자 사회복지학관련 주요학술지 8종에 개재된 2,112편의 논문을 내용 분석하여 질적 인터뷰 결과 분석을 보완하였다. 연구 결과, 한국사회복지학에서의 질적 연구는 국내에서 학위를 받은 학문 후속세대에 의해 '필요에 의해 확산' 되는 독특한 형태로 아래로부터 위로 나아가는 정향을 보여주었다. 또한 인식론적 입장으로는 후기실증주의적 관점과 약한 구성주의적 관점이 혼재되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 엄격성과 관련해서는 연구시작부터 결과보고에 이르는 전 과정에서 연구자의 책임성을 바탕으로, 진실하고 기본에 충실하게 하는 것을 강조하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 현재 한국 사회복지학문공동체가 지향해야 할 주요 과제들을 제시하였다. 이를 통해 한국사회복지질적연구의 엄격성에 대한 담론이 활성화되어, 보다 질(Quality) 높은 연구결과가 산출되기를 기대한다.

Qualitative research methodology has been applied with increasing frequency in various fields, including in healthcare research, where quantitative research methodology has traditionally dominated, with an empirically driven approach involving statistical analysis. Drawing upon artifacts and verbal data collected from in-depth interviews or participatory observations, qualitative research examines the comprehensive experiences of research participants who have experienced salient yet unappreciated phenomena. In this study, we review 6 representative qualitative research methodologies in terms of their characteristics and analysis methods: consensual qualitative research, phenomenological research, qualitative case study, grounded theory, photovoice, and content analysis. We mainly focus on specific aspects of data analysis and the description of results, while also providing a brief overview of each methodology's philosophical background. Furthermore, since quantitative researchers have criticized qualitative research methodology for its perceived lack of validity, we examine various validation methods of qualitative research. This review article intends to assist researchers in employing an ideal qualitative research methodology and in reviewing and evaluating qualitative research with proper standards and criteria.

Qualitative research is a method widely used in marketing research. However, the method has seldom been used in fashion marketing research in Korea. The purpose of this study was to prove that using both qualitative and quantitative research methods in main stage is much useful than using qualitative research method only in exploratory stage. Qualitative data were gathered by conducting Focus Group Interview(FGI) with 48 college students. Quantitative data were gathered by surveying college students, and 487 questionnaires were used in the statistical analysis. The data were analyzed using content analysis, mean, standard deviation, and t-test. As a result, FGI, one of the tools used in qualitative research methods, was proved to be useful in revealing consumers´deep emotional needs as well as purchase motives. FGI also revealed information which quantitative research method tools such as survey could have missed. Therefore, it is best to use multiple methods-simultaneous use of quantitative and qualitative methods-to understand fast changing consumers´needs and purchase motives.
