Robson and Kitchen (2007) however state that despite the doctor taking the role of leader the team can still work together collaboratively as long as the doctor is open to the opinions of the others within the team, Miller et al (2001) agrees writing that being the leader doesn’t necessarily make the individual the decision maker.Day (2006) and Baker et al (2011) suggest that this difference of opinion could result from professional socialisation, whereby professionals develop values, philosophies and perspectives of their profession, doctors value saving lives whereas nurses advocate humanism and physiotherapists will value improving quality of life.Day (2006) defines Interprofessional working as individuals from a profession working to...

Robson (2002) comments that the interview process can be time-consuming because it entails the researcher to make arrangements, fix appointment schedules, conduct the interview while writing down notes, then after the interview, transcribing it in verbatim.The interview gives participants the opportunity to express their own point of view regarding certain situations (Cohen et al., 2000).Such qualitative data derived may not be accessible in the methods of observation or questionnaire (Blaxter, Hughes & Tight, 2006).For this study, the researcher will observe an inclusive class with children with special education needs.It is a flexible tool that adapts to the situation and responses of the participants and being able to immediately ...

What areas are most vulnerable to flood risk in Radcliffe, Bury?Dawson et al., (2006) used the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) technique to estimate flood statistics for un-gauged catchments (for most of the River catchments in the UK).Though it is still difficult to attribute global warming recorded this century to the enhanced greenhouse effect and the resultant increase in observed rainfall (Reynard et al, 2001; Robson et al, 1998), the recurrent incidence of floods and their magnitude in the UK in recent times have raised major concerns that the effect of climate change is already being felt across the country (Robson, 2002).Reed and Robson, (1999, cited in Dawson et al., 2006) stressed that many flood estimation problems were likel...

There is low researcher involvement, thus reducing the likelihood of researcher bias.Quantitative research is appropriate for the natural sciences, where reality is concrete, mathematical, and objective.However, it fails to address the often subjective, imaginative, values-based, and unpredictable human elements that social scientists study.Human reality is found within a context that is anything but natural science.Early interest in qualitative research stemmed from the inadequacies of quantitative research to solve problems in the social sciences (Morgan & Smircich, 1980).
