Towards an Ontology of Qualitative Research Practices

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to introduce the Polish community of qualitative researchers to a new perspective in the study of qualitative research practices. The idea is to develop an ontology of contemporary qualitative research. Drawing on experiences from our research project, the article discusses the idea of systematizing the present state of art in the field of theory and methodology of qualitative research. Our study focuses on a new methodology of multidimensional content analysis of three international academic journals. The article describes the preliminary results of a pilot study which employs a dictionary-based approach as a method of knowledge discovery in textual databases and its systematization. Our goal is to provide insight in the vast and diverse approaches in the field of qualitative research practices.
