One of the main methods for data gathering when doing qualitative study is through interviews. When writing a research proposal for a study that requires interviews, the researcher will write up an interview protocol that includes how the researcher will interact with the participant during the interview. The main part of the protocol involves what the interview questions are and whether the interview will be open-ended, structured, or semi-structured. Find two dissertations in the ProQuest library Dissertation and Thesis data base that are related to your research topic for this course and that include an interview protocol as one of the Appendixes in the dissertation. [Hint: Do an advanced search for “your topic AND “qualitative.” Then check the table of contents in interesting dissertations to see if they list the interview questions or protocol.] Critique the interview protocols that you found by writing about at least three aspects that surprised you, but you found beneficial, and write on at least three aspects that you would improve upon (and how). Support your answer using information from the books. My research topic is: Social Service and Human Nature: A Set of Entwined Concepts. 1. The Book: Hennink, M., Hutter, I., & Bailey, A. (2011).
