Interpretivist researcher enteres t

Interpretivist researcher enteres the field with some sort of prior insight about the research topic but assumes that this is insufficient in developing a fixed research design due to complex, multiple and unpredictable nature of what is perceived as reality. During the data collection stage the researcher and his informants are interdependent and mutually interactive with each other and construct a collaborative account of perceived reality. The researcher remain open to new ideas throughout the study and let it develop with the help of his informants. The use of such an emergent approach is also consistant with the interpretivist belief of human’s ability to adapt and that no one can gain prior knowledge of time and context bound social realities (Hudson and Ozanne 1988).
