Issues of qualitative research methods and presentation

Article Abstract:

Sports psychology research has been limited by philosophical perspective and is effecting qualitative research. There are as many acceptable methods for conducting qualitative analyses as there are epistemological perspectives, such as those required by hermeneutics, ethnographies, and ground theory approaches. New and diverse methodologies need to be explored and accepted.
