Summary
Menurut Sukmadinata (2009), penelitian kualitatif adalah penelitian yang digunakan untuk mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis fenomena, peristiwa, aktivitas sosial, sikap, kepercayaan, presepsi, dan orang secara individual maupun kelompok. Sedangkan menurut Sugiyono (2010) menjelaskan bahwa metode penelitian kualitatif merupakan metode penelitian yang berlandaskan pada filsafat positivisme, digunakan untuk meneliti pada kondisi obyek yang alamiah (sebagai lawannya adalah eksperimen) di mana peneliti adalah sebagai instrumen kunci, pengambilan sampel sumber data dilakukan secara purposive dan snowball, teknik pengumpulan dengan trianggulasi, analisis data bersifat induktif/kualitatif, dan hasil penelitian kualitatif lebih menekan makna dari pada generalisasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode wawancara terbuka agar penulis dapat memperoleh informasi yang sedalam-dalamnya dari subjek. Proses analisis data dilakukan setelah proses wawancara selesai dilakukan dengan membuat transkrip wawancara dalam bentuk verbatim dan meringkas data agar yang direpresentasikannya dapat dipahami dengan baik. Proses coding dilakukan per subjek terlebih dahulu dengan melakukan penomoran pada setiap baris transkrip dan memberikan kode-kode tertentu untuk memudahkan analisis
