Abstract
Qualitative research begins with one or more relatively broad research questions that may be revised iteratively as the research is carried out to narrow the research aim or purpose. This is different from quantitative research, where a narrow research question is set at the start and remains fixed. For example, the aim of a study may be to explore the experiences of women who are pregnant while living with epilepsy. The initial research question may be ‘How do women with epilepsy experience pregnancy?’ However, from preliminary findings this may change to ‘How do women manage their epilepsy during pregnancy?’
