Resumen
ANADON, Marta. The so-called "qualitative research": from their evolution dynamics to their undeniable achievements and present challenges. Invest. educ. enferm [online]. 2008, vol.26, n.2, pp.198-211. ISSN 0120-5307.
studies classified as "qualitative", research that is not independent from the general trend of developed social studies. Particularly, this study emphasizes that the qualitative focuses within studies have solidified their place in genuine science. Within these "qualitative" approaches, and procedures have become well established and even a point of reference for scientific analyses. This new balance within science brings us to think about these advancements because these qualitative studies, with aims to understand the diversity of human expression (within arts, dance, literature, and other esthetic forms), currently have been degraded with the outbreak of uncontrolled research aimed to disprove or legitimize claims.
