“If you want to study how people think, you have to get them to think- and with that approach it seemed like you need a qualitative method” – Jackie Weinstock
One of Professor Jackie Weinstock’s recent projects has been working with Wake Robin, a life care community in Vermont. As an expert on adult development and aging, Professor Weinstock and a colleague were brought in by Wake Robin to evaluate the community they have created. The project was based on a client-investigator relationship and assessed whether Wake Robin have met their goals of creating a resident-driven setting, where people can age in a positive, connected, and supportive environment. Professor Weinstock used multiple qualitative research methods for the project, including archival analysis, interviews and questionnaires.
