Vertrouwen in burgerperspectieven
Authors: Paul Dekker & Josje den RidderTrust in citizens’ outlooksTrust in citizens’ outlooks
Since 2008 the Netherlands Institute for Social Research | SCP conducts the Citizens’ Outlooks Barometer (COB), which explores current trends in public opinion in the Netherlands. In the COB quantitative and qualitative research methods are combined to signal trends and new issues, to explain group differences, and to investigate the feelings and arguments behind public concerns. We use focus groups and open-ended survey questions for qualitative research. A main topic in COB has been the development and diversity of trust in political institutions. By combining numbers and arguments, we have tried to put political trust in perspective (it is often more a diffuse image than a deep conviction) and give a better understanding of the (asymmetric) reasons for trust and for distrust. We deal with the usual problems of representation and generalization in qualitative research as good as we can by discussing interpretations in our diverse research team. A main challenge is now to develop more systematic and less time-consuming ways to analyze large sets of open answers in surveys.

De waarde van kwalitatieve strategieën voor het praktijkgericht onderzoek
More LessThe value of qualitative strategies for practice-oriented researchThe value of qualitative strategies for practice-oriented research
Mainstream methodology for quantitative and experimental research can’t come up to many demands of practice-oriented research. Qualitative research strategies often offer very good opportunities as to the accessibility of the object of practice-oriented research and to the utility of its results. However, what are needed is a fully practice-oriented researcher, as well as a further development of the methodology of qualitative causal research, of phenomenological oriented qualitative research strategies, and of qualitative research as a whole.
