Feedback:
Case studies are in-depth investigations of a single entity or small number of entities. The entity may be an individual, family, institution, community, or other social unit. Case study researchers attempt to analyze and understand issues that are important to the history, development, or circumstances of the entity under study. Case studies do not prioritize the story (which is the focus of narrative analysis) and content analysis is not central to this tradition. Pentadic dramatism is associated with narrative analysis.
