Can sample size in qualitative research be determined a priori? (2018)
Journal Article

There has been considerable recent interest in methods of determining sample size for qualitative research a priori, rather than through an adaptive approach such as saturation. Extending previous literature in this area, we identify four distinct ap... Read More about Can sample size in qualitative research be determined a priori?.
