The research I want to carry out is through open ended questionnaire..
The combination of open-ended interviews with a case study is a very common research design. Two introductory books on this kind of research are Stake, The Art of Case Study Research, and Yin, Case Study Research.
Dear Madam i advise one latest article on "Reflections and Recommendations for Conducting In-Depth Interviews With People With Dementia."i am attached the article,read it some points you gain
Dear Tarika,
Before answering this question it is worthwhile to study the theory of case study research. There are four main kinds of case study:
- Critical
- Unique
- Revelatory
- Exemplifying
In your methodology you need to explain what kind of case study you are using and why and also how you have implemented it.
Is using in-depth interviews going to give you the necessary data to account for the complexity and depth of your example or due you need to compliment this data collection technique with another one? How many interviews do you need? With whom? How long should they be? Etc.

Hello, Tarika!
I suggest you take a look at COREQ (Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research). It is a 32-item checklist for interviews and focus groups. It was very helpful to me. I hope it helps!

Thankyou eveyone.. the inputs are really helpful.
When we proceed for writing the research methodology for quantitative research, there are few points we always write like, population, sampling frame, sample size etc.
The same way I was looking for qualitative methods as well. The answers really helped me much..
Dear Tarika,
"The same way I was looking for qualitative methods as well." Yes, I agree with you. The next essential issue may relate to how to ensure the interrelationship between the above mentioned methodological points and the cohesion of the points.
Dear Prof. Subiyakto..I know how difficult it is but definitely, the papers suggested above will help you
