This video was very useful. It would have been good to have a visual to picture the various thematic frameworks, perhaps a simple flow chart whereby you are able move the text boxes around to illustrate the different chapter structures? Great content, thanks again!

[@qualitativeresearcher]

Thank you Paul, for the great feedback and suggestions. I know I need to work on this aspect of some of my videos. I just don't really know what to use for visualisations like this, I would like to at least have some virtual equivalent of a whiteboard to draw my ideas on it as I speak but I am not that competent and knowledgeable when it comes to computers. I hope I will find some platform or software that I can use for this in the future

This channel is what I needed. I have had a lot of issues with my research becase with my group we decided to carry out a focal group to understand the experiences that tre service teachers had during the quarentine and we also did a questionare to be aware of the context of each participant, but we had no idea in how to 1) organize the data 2) how to present it. However, with the thematic analysis we were able to organize our chapter and now we at least know what are we going to writte. I just wanted to thank you, you have saved our investigation xd

[@aycakinik]

I think this video is very helpful in gaining a perspective on presenting findings. It even helped my struggle about coding and analysis. I can imagine how it won't help everyone but it would be unfair to expect that from a 20 mins video. And it would be too long for people who want to gain perspective if every detail of the data was explained and the video was 40 mins. So thanks a lot!

[@perpetualnwankwo5862]

Thank you so much for this. You just know this so well. I was wondering how you were able to just talk and talk about this like it's a part of you. I look forward to knowing this the way you do. I had to watch this video 3times to be able to digest it and make notes. And yes, a diagramatic representation of this spectacular teaching would really go a long way. Thanks again. I am grateful.

[@qualitativeresearcher]

Thank you for this feedback. Regarding your question, once you understand that thematic analysis is really not that difficult and is actually quite a simple and common sense process (have a look at my video "Coding and thematic analysis explained in 5 minutes"), talking about it becomes easy too. Because I talk about simple actions and facts, not about some complex theory, as so many authors are trying to make us think.

[@katearkley2209]

Extremely helpful video- thank you ! For A constructivist-led grounded theory study , I think best to organise findings into core category and properties then discuss consistency across participants with quotes etc as opposed to frequency since the findings reflect significant (not frequency) does that make sense ?

[@qualitativeresearcher]

Agree, but I also think reporting the frequency may help see the consistency. I know some oppose the idea of coding frequencies in Qual reports, but I strongly support it, even in GT

[@katearkley2209]

@@qualitativeresearcher Yes, I agree with you - they will show consistency in agreement with codes across the participants-adding to the audit trail I guess. Thank you !! Excellent resources.

[@lindakimencu4337]

This is very helpful, how do you report qualitative data from documents without the risk of plagiarism? especially where you have to use extracts from the documents to explain a theme.

[@qualitativeresearcher]

Good question - I never thought about this , but my guess is that due to the nature of your data, even if some plagiarism is being automatically detected, the person in charge would actually go through the examples and understand what is happening

[@hadilbek5024]

very informative. Thank you! I have a question, please: Is it fine to analyse the data this way: Q1: ...........? (then describe what were the main answers provided by the participants) participant1: ................. p2:..... p3: ...........(quotes from the participants interview) Q2: .......................................? P1:.......... ...

[@qualitativeresearcher]

it's possible but I usually try no to do this, as this results in some overlaps and repetition because more often than not, one theme may be used to demonstrate answers to more than 1 RQ. This means that this theme will need to be brought into the discussion again for another RQ, which may feel repetitive and confusing to the reader. It is for this reason mainly that I prefer to organize the results by the themes, but if you do it properly, you can also do it the way you described of course

[@Noah-ky9hd]

Thanks a lot for very useful tips. I am wondering if you have any advice on how to trim results from experts interviews that amounted to eight major themes in 13 pages. How to do that and yet still be able to provide enough comments for evidence and credibility.

[@qualitativeresearcher]

I would say this simply depends on which themes/sub-themes you decide to keep. And this, in turn, will depend on your research questions and aims, so you need to think of 1) your research questions and aims, 2) the overall "story" or narrative that you will present when answering these questions, 3) both of the above will help you decide what themes and sub-themes stay and which ones will not be used to tell that "story". I also have some videos on how to develop a thematic framework (in the data analysis playlist) that you may find useful

[@Noah-ky9hd]

@@qualitativeresearcherThanks for your kind reply. I will surly look at those videos. I do not know how to thank you for your kindness and for the advice. This is so helpful. I will surely try to keep themes most relevant to answer my questions. I guess it will be even clearer once I start the discussion chapter. Thanks a lot once again.

Let suppose I have one variable having ten statements I used questionnaire tool with Likert scales. And get data from Likert scale choices.

Hi! Thank you so much for your videos, they have been a huge help! I wanted to ask on brief question. I've done a qualitative research study and included quotes within the results sections to back up what I'm saying. I'm wondering if it's worth putting a seperate coding/quote table in the appendix or not, so they can see multiple quotes under one theme, that I haven't necessary included in the body (Due to word count) I've heard varying information on it, and not sure what the best thing to do here is?

[@qualitativeresearcher]

This will depend on the preference, wordcount, etc. Some supervisors even encourage students to do so. I would say, why not - IF the appendix does NOT count towards your wordcount. If it does, there are better ways to use these words

[@vishnupriyan8804]

Hi sir, should we mention the supporting quotes for the themes?

[@sairabaig3118]

Can I report the findings from two different groups of participants under the same sub-headings or do I need to report them under different heads?

[@qualitativeresearcher]

it really depends on how you decide to organize the findings, whether for example your themes dictate the structure - and therefore, you discuss all findings related to a theme/sub-theme that come from various groups - or the groups dictate the structure - in which case you may have separate sections or chapters for each group, and then go through all relevant findings for each group there

[@qualitativeresearcher]

yes, more often than not I would have two sets of thematic frameworks, but this depends on many factors. In any case, I usually start coding separately and develop 2 frameworks, later I sometimes decide whether I want to merge these two frameworks or keep them separately. Regarding the presentation of results, I have other videos in which I talk specifically about this. you can organise the results chapter in many ways

For exploratory studies, is it necessary to apply the findings into some model or framework?

not necessarily a model but a "framework" in a sense of thematic framework or a list of themes. This does not, however, have to be a visual model with relationships , etc. (which is what many people imagine when they hear "framework")
