Popis: | Social sciences research methodology is of great importance in disciplines and for interested people on searching various knowledge or solution to a phenomenon. This is due to the fact that, human activities and environmental changes created complexity in life as well as challenges. But, these challenges requires answers from fundamental questions such as what, where, who and how. Therefore, interested groups such as researchers, academician and practitioners need to explore the use of rapid appraisal through which they can find answers for the given fundamental questions. Thus, the need for an intensive, team-based qualitative inquiry using triangulation, iterative data analysis, and additional data collection to quickly develop a preliminary understanding of a situation from the insider's perspective cannot be relegated from the more general context of advances in social science research today. This paper looks into the need for the reintegration of rapid appraisal method in social science research. The conclusion is that rapid appraisal and social science methods are indeed complimentary, hence the need for the integration of both methods in social science research. |
