Qualitative and Quantitative Analyses of Psychological Distress: Methodological Complementarity and Ontological Incommensurability

Abstract: Rigorous qualitative and quantitative methodologies have been used for the development of a multidimensional scale dedicated to the measurement of psychological distress. A comparison between the idioms of distress or the cultural forms through which French Quebecois express their distress (qualitative constructs) and the nonorthogonal factors derived from explanatory and higher order factorial analyses (quantitative constructs) illustrates the possibilities of complementarity between qualitative and quantitat… Show more

“…3) a painful sensation and depressed mood (sadness); and 4) a lack of energy, a sense of despair, and feelings of powerlessness and helplessness about the future (hopelessness) (Ilfeld, 1976;Massé, 2000;Ridner, 2004). More recently, self-depreciation has been acknowledged as a major component in psychological distress.…”

“…Some researchers think that a true and fruitful amalgamation of quantitative and qualitative approaches is not feasible; that is, the quest for meaning and the quest for measurement are incommensurable [24]. Karlsen and Karlsen [3] investigated the inherent ontological and epistemic premises embedded in the application of quantitative and qualitative foresight methods and tools, offering taxonomies for the classification of the most commonly-used approaches according to criteria such as mobilisation, scope and complexity.…”
