##  Resources for Qualitative Research

 **Qualitative Data Collection**

 [Charmaz\_Gathering\_Rich\_Data](/file_url/132). A good check list for what to remember to ask in interviews. Useful to assess the interviews you've already conducted and adjust the following ones accordingly.

 [Small\_How many cases do I need?](/file_url/133). A very useful reflection on what a case is, how to think of one's sample, and when to stop collecting data.

 [Guest et al. How many interviews are enough?](/file_url/134) Especially intended for those of you who might have relatively few interviews: a much cited article on why a dozen interviews might be enough. (Particularly useful for your "Data and methods" section.)

 [Charmaz\_Theoretical Sampling and Saturation](/file_url/135). On returning to the field to refine one's findings. Read only after you have your first results.

 [Ryann Manning Presentation on Qualitative Methods](/file_url/136). Slides from Ryann Manning's presentation to Soc 99 on September 23, 2015.

 [Qualitative Methods Worksheet](/file_url/137). Worksheet from Ryann Manning's presentation to Soc 99 on September 23, 2015. This worksheet may be helpful to brainstorm ideas about data collection for your thesis.

 **Qualitative Data Analysis**

 [MilesHuberman\_Analysis during data collection](/file_url/138). For those of you who are still in the field, a guide to advancing your analysis at the same time.

 [Charmaz\_Grounded Theory](/file_url/139). An introduction to inductive analysis based on qualitative data.

 [Charmaz\_Coding](/file_url/140). A step-by-step guide to coding. Useful reference to supplement Professor Viterna's session or refresh your memory later.

 [Charmaz\_Memo Writing](/file_url/141). After you have started coding: a guide to writing code-based memos to advance your analysis.
