Q Technique and Its Methodology: A Brief Introduction and Consideration.
Talbott, Albert D.
The development of Q methodology is briefly reviewed, and the methodology itself is briefly described. Finally, a number of the issues are raised relating to the use of Q. Q methodology can have fruitful applications if it is not used indescriminately. Appropriate use of Q requires careful attention to the way the problems being researched are defined. (Author/AG)
