Qualitative
Purpose
Qualitative analysis is the analysis of qualitative data for instance, data from interview transcripts. As Bhattacherjee (2012) states, qualitative analysis is heavily reliant upon the researcher’s skills in analysis, integrative skills, and personal knowledge of the social context where the data is collected. In order to do a qualitative study on data visualization in Malawi health information communication, I will first have to explore the current data flow within the Malawi HS. From there, I will build my theory, as is suggested by Recker (2013).

Limitations of Case Study
Case studies have limitations such as: problems of controlled deduction, problems of replicability, and problems of control mechanism.
Method for data collection
The literature review section will include the use of HIS in countries to understand how the HIS in other countries are being/ have been used to benefit their HS. I will first have to identify the roles of the stakeholders in order to find out what kinds of information are necessary within that role. Then I will try to visualize the data flow in HIS? I will use LUBsearch, Google Scholar, and AISNET “Basket of Eight” to find useful articles. After finding relevant sources, I will check the references of the papers and also check which papers have been cited on LUBsearch and Google Scholar to source data.

In addition, I can also use the guidelines set by the WHO and the Ministry of Health called Technical Guidelines for Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) to align my theories with the rules and regulations set by the WHO and the Ministry of …show more content…

Subjects must be aware that their participation is voluntary and that they have the freedom to withdraw from the study at any time without any unfavorable consequences (Bhattacherjee, 2012). Informed consent form will be used to describe such rights of the participants.

I will also secure the anonymity and confidentiality of the subjects in order to protect their identity. I will also be obligated to disclose information about my own study before the data collection will begin to allow the subjects to decide if they want to participate or not. I will also be ethically obliged to reveal to the scientific community how the data was analyzed and reported in the research process. Unexpected or negative findings should be fully disclosed even if it casts doubt on my own research design

The first ethical imperatives when collecting data listed by Creswell, involves respecting the research site, in that a researcher is expected to leave a research site undisturbed or to minimize the disruption to the site. The second ethical imperative is to ensure that both the participant and researcher benefit from the research being conducted. Next, ethical guidelines require the participants to know that they are actively participating in a research study and should be provided instructions that inform participants of the purpose of the study (Creswell, 2014). This aligns with the APA ethics code 8.02 Informed Consent to Research, which requires the researcher to provide a form to participants prior to participation and addresses the following:

In the study “Assessing the quality of informed consent in a resource-limited setting: A cross-sectional study,” researchers investigated the process of obtaining informed consent in clinical and public health research. The method of the study utilized interviews, in which research participants were asked a series of questions after they had been through informed consent procedures. 600 participants were interviewed, and the results show that 5.9% believed that they were not given enough information before deciding to participate. Only 5.7% of the participants said that they had not signed a consent form before making the decision to participate. Interestingly, 33.7% reported that they were not aware of their power to withdraw from participation

1.1.1 Ethical Considerations Given that the client participant group is characteristically different to those implementing services, a separate section for ethical considerations was contemplated. As before the DH Research Governance Framework for Health and Social Care (2005) and BACP Ethical Framework (BACP, 2013) were consulted for guidance. Many of the same procedures regarding informed consent, confidentiality, data protection, and right to withdraw were re-enacted (see section Interviewing those Implementing Services: Ethical Considerations above). However, it is recognised that this sample represents a potentially vulnerable group, meaning certain approaches were altered to ensure the minimisation of harm. 1.1.1.1

The article I selected researched racial and ethnic disparities in ADHD diagnosis from kindergarten to eighth grade across the United States. This article best exemplifies the longitudinal Survey design through its exploration into what extent does racial and ethnic disparities play in the diagnosis of attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder also known as (ADHD) in children in early grades or middle school education. Diagnosis of any disability can have serious implications on student performance; this research emphasizes the importance of racial disparities in the diagnoses of learners in classrooms across the country. Morgan (2013) suggest minority students are dispproportional diagnosed and treated for ADHD. As such the effects of racial disparities on these learners can begin in kindergarden and have lasting effects on how people, learners, and educators arrive at understanding.

Informed consent is defined as the knowledgeable and voluntary agreement given by a patient. Informed consent protects patient autonomy and endorses trust between the medical community and the patient. If a patient knows that they are lied to, or not told the entire truth, the patient will lose confidence in the medical community as a whole (Eval, 2011). If this non-education does happen, then the patient will not be able to make choices about the end of their life, medially or financially (Piper, nd). Personal integrity is gained when informed consent is used, as the person is making their own choices, not having their family or others make choices on their behalf, when the patient is excluded for the education of the disease (Eval, 2011).
