| dc.description.abstract | This qualitative study used Mary Douglas's (1982) grid and group typology to explain the cultural context and preferences of foreign language instruction in a public university located in southern Thailand. Several data collection strategies were employed, including survey questionnaires, in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. Triangulation, prolonged engagement, and peer debriefing are examples of several techniques used to ensure trustworthiness. | |
