Abstract

I had chosen a mixed-methods research framework for my dissertation, and that is when I needed to learn more about qualitative methodology. I propose that each and every researcher should understand themselves before they attempt to understand a phenomenon or other people even if it is a quantitative study. Struggling for an objective perspective is not more than a bluff. I saw myself both biased and reactive in my study, and I embraced them instead of fighting against them. I want to tell more about it.
