Qualitative research is based on interpretation, so we cannot discuss absolute objectivity because the researchers involved can have a significant contribution in the analysis, synthesizing the information and presenting the results.

Considering the non-probability sampling, the main limitation of the research consists in the impossibility of generalizing the conclusions of the study at the level of the entire region.

The purpose of qualitative research is not to obtain information that can be generalized to the population in question, but to reach deeper levels of information, to better understand the causes underlying certain phenomena, as well as to explain the motivations, attitudes and the behaviors of certain groups relevant to the research.

The chosen research technique - the in-depth interview - it has the advantage that it can deal with complex topics and that the subjects are not influenced by other participants in the discussion (as can happen in the case of the focus group), but it must be taken into account that the interviewers themselves can involuntarily influence the answers received.

Another limit of qualitative research is that, due to the experience, age, place where he lives, the interview technique knows a series of limitations, which can only be combated by the skill of the interviewer and the specialists who analyze the information collected with interview help.

The research used a complex methodology that allowed a comprehensive approach to the problem, including:

• documentary analysis;
• individual interviews.

1. Documentary analysis

            Through the documentary analysis, researches, books, analyzes were studied that targeted the objectives of the present research. The limited volume of the bibliography was the result of the fact that few recent researches have studied Roma culture in the current context.

2. Individual interviews

            During the group interviews, the issues discussed referred to the following aspects:

• the perception of one's own culture;
• the intergenerational relationship and its relation to past, current and future cultural values;
• the factors that contribute to the preservation or disappearance of customs/traditions;
• the family - community/ethnic group relationship;
• causes and solutions to the phenomenon of the disappearance of customs/cultural models;
• the process of passing on customs;
• desirable cultural models from within Roma communities;
• solutions regarding the preservation of ethnic cultural customs/models

            In the interview guide, the technique of open and at the same time focused questions on the subject of the research was mainly used.
