The expressions you have presented here are used within quantitative context rather than qualitative one. Qualitative research is often descriptive in nature, and phenomenology, IPA, and grounded theory are applied as qualitative methods to achieve designated goals.
Qualitative approach is more about understanding a person's unique, subjective experience whereas quantities "attempt" to reach objectivity.
For example researchers from quantitative approach would ask:
What is the prevalence of depression within the population?
Researchers using qualitative approach would ask:
What is your understanding of depression? How does it affect you? Could you describe your feelings, emotions ?
