PAEZ BECERRA, Francisco Javier et al. Econogram: designing a tool for qualitative research in social contexts with low or no socioeconomic information data base. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.2, pp.599-604. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy14-2.edic.

This paper presents a qualitative research tool called Econogram. This instrument has its origin in the need to generate new knowledge to evaluate the effectiveness of the state programs, implemented to attend the population affected by a phenomenon of excessive rainfall in Colombia between November 2010 and March 2011. This research tool is both a format and a technique, which proves the structure of the interactions between an individual, or a group in economic terms. It also allows tracking and understanding shifts in economic behavior throughout time to infer cycles of production, consumption and production networks and trends.

Palabras clave : qualitative research; research tools; social research; econometrics; baseline; research methodology.
