I am interested in the influence of the level of communication skills in the course of qualitative research and in the result of it.
I Like an article of Blatt and all which was written in Teaching and Learning in Medicine:
Verbal interaction analysis: Viewing feedback through a different lens
B Blatt, S Confessore, G Kallenberg… - Teaching and learning …, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
Background: Verbal interaction analysis, though seldom applied to the feedback-giving
process, can be used to assess feedback dimensions not easily assessed by other means.
Description: The purpose of this study was to explore verbal interaction analysis as a ...
Does this help?
Dear Katarzyna,
Of course the use of approaches and qualitative methodologies happens in research contexts with sometimes substantial differences,
for this reason I have enclosed some links with different orientation and purpose,
confident that among them there is something useful for you,

Dear Mauro,
Thank you very much for your answer. I found the 2ed paper you mentioned as the most helpful. An interesting fragment concerns the info about researcher communication skills, which Kirk & Miller experienced in practise. Still I have got some deficiency :)
Maybe I should pose my question this way: What are the interpersonal communication skills of researcher in QLR? Or more widely: What are the components of interpersonal communication competence of researcher and what is their nature?
I am a "qualitative researcher" for several years and I give lectures of qualitative methodology but still I wonder if indeed every researcher should make QLR (leaving aside the very important question of formulated research problem). The interpersonal communication competence appears to me as a factor validating the results of QLR.
What do you thing about it?
Kind regards,
Kasia
Thank you, Jmm, for your answer. The thing worth to underline, through paper you indicated, is a communication feedback. I think this is one of the most valuable factors of dialogue and mutual understanding. And, according to my question, there is no reliable results of QLR if our communication partner perceives us as (researches) a strangers.
I experieced this situation when I have been doing my PhD researches among the conffesion majnority groups of Lower Silesia (a voivodeship in Poland).
Dear Kasia,
I do not know whether to choose a qualitative research approach must necessarily have to deal with the emotional and communicative features of the investigator.
Certainly must be inherent in the particular experimental project, research priorities, the disciplinary scope of reference, sample or population subject of the research itself.
At the same time, there is no doubt that for many qualitative research projects is essential to a great communication and interpersonal attitude on the part of the investigators involved.
This also related to the various types of investigative tools used, observations, interviews, research-action devices, etc.
Kind Regards,
Mauro
You might look at the new book "Researching interpersonal relationships: Qualitative Methods... "edited by Jimmie Manning and Adrianne Kunkel http://www.amazon.com/Researching-Interpersonal-Relationships-Qualitative-Analysis/dp/1452203903
Thank you Steven very much!
That is exactly what I have been looking for!
