Definición

  • Vulnerability in qualitative research applies to potential conditions of research participants in which the participants, by virtue of some psychological, cognitive, physical, medical, legal, socioeconomic, or age-related status, are deemed to be more susceptible to lack of full understanding, manipulation, exploitation, or some other possible harm within the research process. Vulnerability often refers to special categories or subpopulations of participants who are regarded, by virtue of their status, as requiring special protections within the research process.
