DQ 1) What considerations must be given to the selection of a qualitative methodology for a research study? Based on what you know now, which of these considerations do you believe are the most important? Why? 

DQ 2) In week 4, you read a quantitative research article by Casale et al. (2020), and this week you have read a qualitative research article by Pless and Katznelson (2020). Compare and contrast the major differences between the two methodologies. Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of qualitative research. In finding articles for your dissertation, does your field tend to conduct more quantitative or qualitative research?
