Uninsured And Underinsured Youth Issues Research Proposal

The researcher notes three types of interviews" a) the unstructured interview, which constitutes a formal, conversational interview without any predetermined questions; (b) the structured interview, where the interviewer utilizes a series of pre-established questions in the same order to obtain information from those he/she interviews; - the semi-structured interview, where the interviewer asks numerous open-ended questions that simultaneously mirror the researcher's perception of theoretical perspective. CONCLUSION

Regarding the phenomenon being researched, as Groenwald (2004) stresses, the unique or minority voices prove to be vital counterpoints for the researcher to bring out. During the course of the proposed study, as the researcher identifies/describes issues the uninsured and underinsured youth have to contend with, the unique and/or minority voices of a number of these youth will be proclaimed through accounts by professionals who care for them.
