Description
Summary:This case study provides a methodological overview of a qualitative study conducted with women living with serious mental illness at a psychiatric institution in India. I discuss the rationale for choosing a qualitative methodology and the significance of feminist research in working with marginalized communities. Thereafter, I present the study's interpretive framework, the specific methods used to answer my questions, the processes involved, and ethical considerations. I conclude the case study with key reflections and lessons learned. I also lay out specific strategies that qualitative researchers can adopt to enhance the methodological rigor of their study.
