Qualitative Research Report The field of dietetics is an evidence based practice and research is essential to understanding the best

nutrition recommendations to provide to patients and the community. I performed a qualitative study using four participants to discover if being in a couple affected an individuals food selection. I reviewed the current literature on the topic to come up with my research question. I developed a set of questions which I used to facilitate discussion with the participants and using edge note coding I made generalization about the population based on what they had told me.
