Abstract
This trend research study aims to analyze qualitative home economics studies based on qualitative research methodologies, paradigms of qualitative research, topics, and methods. A total of 135 qualitative studies in the field of home economics, conducted since 2000, were selected for analysis in this research. In regard of the qualitative research methodologies, ‘data-qualitative research’ with the characteristics of ‘the case of explaining the justification of qualitative data’ were the most found, followed by ‘methodqualitative research’ and ‘qualitative-qualitative research’. In research, the basic qualitative study with interpretivism approach was the most common. Teachers were often chosen as research participants because many researchers were teachers themselves. Most studies used individual interviews for data collection, and inductive coding was the main method of analysis. However, about half of the studies did not address validity or research ethics. The findings suggest that ‘qualitative-qualitative research’ needs to be developed in home economics studies through in-depth exploration and reliability of qualitative research paradigm, methodological aspect, and consideration for research ethics. Additionally, future research should investigate experiences and phenomena through the lens of critical theory, aligning with the mission of home economics education to examine critical science perspectives in practice.perspectives in practice.
