"The goal of qualitative research is to discover patterns which emerge after close observation, careful documentation, and thoughtful analysis of the research topic. What can be discovered by qualitative research are not sweeping generalizations but contextual findings. This process of discovery is basic to the philosophic underpinning of the qualitative approach."

- A phenomenological study may be challenging to use \because
  
  
  · The researcher requires a solid grounding in the philosophical precepts of phenomenology.
  
  · The participants in the study need to be carefully chosen to be individuals who have experienced the phenomenon
  
  
  
  Bracketing personal experiences by the researcher may be difficult.
  
  
  · The researcher needs to decide how and in what way his or her personal experiences will be introduced into the study.
- The ethnography is challenging to use for the following reasons:
  
  
  · The researcher needs to have grounding in cultural anthropology and the meaning of a social-cultural system as well as the concepts typically explored by ethnographers.
  
  
  
  The time to collect data is extensive, involving prolonged time in the field.
  
  
  · In many ethnographies, the narratives are written in a literary, almost storytelling approach, an approach that may limit the audience for the work and may be challenging for authors accustomed to traditional approaches to writing social and human science research.
  
  · There is a possibility that the researcher will "go native" and be unable to complete the study or be compromised in the study. This is but one issue in the complex array of fieldwork issues facing ethnographers who venture into an unfamiliar cultural group or system.
