3.3 Role of the Researcher
The role of the researcher here is as the main research instrument to collect the data. Lincoln Guba in Sugiyono
2013: 306 said, “The instrument of choice in naturalistic inquiry is the human. We shall see that other forms of
instrumentation may be used in later phrases of the inquiry, but the human is the initial and continuing mainstay. But if the human instrument has been used
extensively in earlier stages of inquiry, so that an instrument can be constructed that is grounded in the data that the human instrument has product.”
Qualitative researcher as the human instrument, has a function to state the research focus, select informant as a data source, compile the data, judge the
quality of the data, analyze the data, interpreting the data, and make a conclusion about hisher findings. Sugiyono , 2013: 306.
