      Abstract

      Qualitative research and health has become extremely popular in the last 30 years. Since the 80’s, more and more health professionals have engaged in qualitative research. Discriminating a “qualitative research” from quantitative research, though, is a misnomer, since all research is at least part qualitative.  After all, when epidemiologists or biostatisticians count something, that category is a qualitative “something”.
