Write a paper in which you present a clearly articulated argument for why a qualitative quantitative research methodology is the best approach to answer the potential research question: How are young children impacted by parental incarceration. Include the following in your paper:
A literature-supported discussion identifying the critical attributes of the selected methodology (qualitative).
A literature-supported rationale that clearly articulates why the critical attributes of the selected methodology are a best or appropriate fit for the stated problem and research questions. Cite 3 specific examples within the last three years where a similar methodology was used to answer similar research questions or to address a similar problem statement.
A literature-supported rationale that clearly articulates why the opposing methodology (quantitative) is NOT appropriate for the study.
A concluding statement that clearly affirms the methodological choice (qualitative).
