Answer:
Interpretive research
Explanation:
You want to study how mothers, fathers, and adopted children interact in the first year of their time together. Your method-of-choice is to visit the families once a week and record their verbal interactions. Then you read the transcripts you've made of those conversations and use them as text that helps you better understand what is going on between them. You are engaging in interpretive research.
Interpretive research is a research that is based on naturalistic approach of data collection such as interviews and observations. The interpretation of results is based on subjective observations made by the research during the course of the study. Interpretive research is concerned with understanding social realities. The study of how mothers, fathers and adopted children relate is an example of interpretive research.
Women were a major part of several reform movements of the 1800s and early 1900s. These reform movements sought to promote basic changes in American society, including the abolition of slavery, education reform, prison reform, women's rights, and temperance (opposition to alcohol). A National Temperance Circular (ca. 1850) outlined the problems of drunkenness:
"...Our country is now harboring a fatal enemy; cherishing a plague of dreadful malignity; submitting to a tax which brings no increase to our treasury, while it perpetuates poverty, misery and crime. To prove this, let us state a few facts which may be relied on. Whatever may be said in favor of the temperate use of ardent spirits, (if that indefinite line could ever be drawn,) facts will show incontestibly, that the excessive use of them is the severest scourge with which our nation is visited: and you know that all drunkenness commences in the moderate use of them. Ardent spirit destroys health: ardent spirit creates idleness: ardent spirit ruins character: ardent spirit makes paupers: ardent spirit makes criminals: ardent spirit brutalizes men: ardent spirit destroys domestic happiness: ardent spirit ensures premature death: ardent spirit makes three-fourths of the business and expense of our criminal courts, jails and alms-houses: ardent spirit throws an immense tax on a christian community to support vice: ardent spirit unfits thousands and tens of thousands for the duties of this life and exposes them to the lawful retribution of the next...."
