“…All of the respondents spoke fluent Arabic, as all of them are native Arabic speakers. A content translationlike faithful translationproduces the precise contextual meaning of the original discourse within the text and the constraints of the text's grammatical structures (Flick, 2007). However, this method is not suitable for this research since the Saudi dialect is substantially different from that of the Formal Arabic language (Farghal and Shunnaq, 1992).…”

“…Notwithstanding, main struggles and anxieties were also mentioned by the graduate students. Some of these challenges are similar to those that other novice QLR researchers in other disciplines face as well, such as finding proper participants, interviewing and data analysis (Rifkin and Hartley, 2001; Flick and Bauer, 2004; Bakhshi et al , 2019, 2020). Therefore, it seems that it is very beneficial and essential to consider the perceptions and experience of graduate students, who are the potential prospective researchers at the forefront of academic contexts, toward learning and conducting QLR studies.…”

PurposeThis paper explores the challenges of conducting qualitative research from ELT (English Language Teaching) Ph.D. candidates' perspectives.Design/methodology/approachThe participants of the study consisted of 30 Iranian Ph.D. students majoring in ELT. The semi-structured interview was employed to investigate the heart of experiences, issues and concerns of participants with regard to conducting qualitative research (QLR) challenges. To analyze the collected data, the recorded interviews were transcribed, and then the grounded theory approach was employed (Charmaz, 2006).FindingsThe results revealed that the major challenges of the participants consist of the credibility of QLR in ELT contexts, hermeneutic and fuzzy nature of QLR, qualitative data analysis and interpretation, publishing qualitative findings and the system of measuring professors' productivity.Originality/valueThe findings may help professors, mainly EFL ones, in research mentoring and developing research syllabi for graduate students. In addition, it may motivate Ph.D. candidates to employ QLR methods in their research studies. The pedagogical and theoretical implications of the study are discussed at the end of the paper.

“…Interviews were analyzed through a systematic method that enabled examining themes, sub-themes, concepts, and categories, which derived from the collected data, and permitted the making of connections with the research questions (Bernard et al, 2016;Flick, 2022;Silverman, 2021;Durdella, 2019). Content analysis allowed researchers to reveal themes, discover patterns (Brinkmann & Kvale, 2018), and compare phenomena in different interview texts (Krippendorff, 2018).…”

Social entrepreneurship is an important area of research when it comes to considering the role of business in society and how entrepreneurs solve social problems. The concept has spread not only in developing, but also in developed countries. The recent Covid-19 pandemic has demonstrated that crises can be addressed with entrepreneurial innovation and creativity. This paper attempts to outline a way for social enterprises to overcome the current pandemic crisis, as well as to emphasize the challenges and opportunities the crisis presents social entrepreneurs with. This paper discusses how social enterprises in Georgia have been affected and strategies that have been applied. In order to achieve the research goal, relevant literature has been analyzed and systematized. The qualitative research method has been applied to answer the study questions. The paper concludes with an interpretation of the results and highlights implications for theory and practice. This study finds that Georgian social enterprises are negatively affected by the pandemic crisis due to increased operational costs, interruption of business processes, sales decline, customer loss, and supply chain disruptions. Social enterprises responded to the challenges by changing strategies, re-allocating resources, diversifying funding sources, intensifying communication efforts, introducing new technologies, and moving online. However, government support is essential for Georgian social enterprises to survive and grow. Finally, directions for future research are also proposed.
