Demystifying Qualitative Research for Musculoskeletal Practitioners Part 2: Understanding the Foundations of
The Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy
|December 1, 2021
Abstract
Synopsis:
In this second editorial about qualitative research for musculoskeletal practitioners, we turn our attention to the foundational assumptions that underpin all qualitative research. Specifically, we discuss research paradigms, which consist of ontological and epistemological assumptions, as well as the "lens" of the researcher. Understanding these foundational assumptions will help readers interpret the findings of qualitative studies relevant to a musculoskeletal context.

Introduction to the Skeletal System
7.5K
The skeletal system is the central framework of the body, consisting of different connective tissues: bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments.
Components of the Skeletal System
Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard connective tissue that forms an internal support structure for the human body. Bones shield vulnerable organs and soft tissue from external forces. For example, the vertebral bones protect and support the spinal cord.
Cartilage, a semi-rigid connective tissue found in regions such as...
