[Elements of research design planning].
This article deals with the research design, defined from the point of view of the qualitative tradition. This is justified by the fact that this kind of research is better adapted to an helping profession like nursing. First, the author defines the concept of research design. Then, he discussed the nature of the research question as the key element in a research. It is followed by a summary by a summary presentation of methodology: the kind of data needed, data collection and analysis. At least, importance is given to topics sometimes neglected in a research design: theory of practice, transmission of research results and ethics in research.
