Explain the case study method in your own words.
उत्तर
The case study is one of the qualitative research methods used in psychology. This method is mostly used by clinical psychologists. Sigmund Freud and Jean Piaget were the two important figures to use the case study method widely. A case study is an in-depth look at an individual, group, or particular event. The case study can be treated as a scientific method as it provides rich descriptive information often suggesting hypotheses for further studies.
In the case study method, a researcher collects information about a particular individual (case) from multiple sources such as parents, family members, peers, teachers, colleagues, etc. to assess the individual’s current level of psychological functioning. A researcher while using the case study method may use several techniques like observation, interview, psychological tests, etc. to collect information about a particular individual.
