Looking at research from a cultural perspective, identify and describe instances when a particular research methodology–quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-method–might work best with a specific population and when it might be problematic. As examples, when working with a physically impaired qualitative research project, you might need to provide special physical accommodation to enable research subjects to complete desired tasks. For a mentally challenged population, you might need to consider the comprehension level of research subjects when designing a study. Evaluate different approaches for dealing with diverse sample populations when designing a research project. Some specific populations to examine might include minorities, homeless people, mentally challenged people, developmentally challenged people, or people with alternate lifestyles. In addition, reflect on how beliefs and bias may impact research and professional practice.
