1 Qualitative Interviews Jana Rückert-John 1
2 Agenda Differences between quantitative and qualitative interviews Types of qualitative interviews Focused interview Preparing an interview guide Behaviour of the interviewer Example: The use of organic food products in eating out 2
3 Differences between structured and qualitative interviews Qualitative interviews Are less structured/standardised Take the participant s viewpoint Encourage rambling off the topic Are more flexible Seek rich, detailed answers Aim to understand rather than to generalise Source: Bryman (2004) 3
4 Type of qualitative interviews Two major types (extremes) Structured Interview Quantitative Interviews Semi-structured Unstructured Interview Interview Qualitative Interviews 4
5 Type of qualitative interviews Unstructured interview Few, loosely defined topics Open-ended questions to allow free response Conversational style Semi-structured interview List of specific topics to cover (interview guide) Flexible question order and phrasing A lot of variety between them 5
6 Focused Interview (1) Developed by MERTON and KENDALL for communication and media research in the 1940s is used to collect qualitative data by setting up a situation The focus of the interview is determined by the researcher The objective is to understand the respondent s point of view 6
7 Focused Interview (2) Open-ended questions (question guide) Tell me about You said a moment ago can you tell me more? The researcher tries to build a rapport with the respondent. The interview is like a conversation. Prepared questions or questions that occur during the interview. 7
8 Focused Interview - Advantages Positive rapport High validity Complex questions and issues can be discussed / clarified Pre-set questions are an orientation Easy to record interview 8
9 Focused Interview - Disadvantages Depends on the skill of the interviewer Unconscious signals of the interviewer (interviewer effect) Time consuming Expensive Not very reliable Difficult to analyse Difficult to generalise 9
10 Comparison Methodological Premises Semi-structured interview Unstructured interview Openness Partly Completely Communication Interview guide Narrative Process orientated Partly Given Flexibility Relative low High Explication Yes Yes Theoretical preconditions Hypothesis Concept Verification primarily, generation too Nearly without Generation Perspective of the interviewees Partly Given 10
11 Preparing an interview guide 11 List of issues or questions 1. General research area 2. Specific research questions 3. Interview topics 4. Formulate interview questions 5.

12 Kinds of questions 12 Introducing questions Tell me about... Follow-up questions Probing questions Specifying questions Direct questions Indirect questions Structuring questions Silence Interpreting questions Source: Kvale (1996) What do you mean by that...? Could you say some more about that? What happened next? Do you find it easy to keep smiling when serving customers? What do most people think about? Let s move on to Allow pauses Do you mean that?
13 Qualification criteria of an interviewer Structuring Knowledgeable Balanced Interpreting Remembering Clear Gentle Sensitive Open 13 Source: Kvale (1996)
14 After the interview 14 Make notes about your observations: How the interview went Was the interviewee talkative, cooperative, nervous, well-dressed/scruffy, etc? Where the interview took place Any other feelings about the interview Did it open up new avenues of interest? The setting Source: Bryman (2004) Busy/quiet, many/few other people in the vicinity, new/old buildings, use of computers etc
