Self-assessment

TASK 1. Tick the statements which describe the inductive approach to data analysis:

• data-driven
• bottom-up
• theoretical analysis
• analyst-driven
• top-down
• detailed overall description of data
• detailed analysis of a specific aspect of data
• coding for a specific research question
• a specific research question evolves through the coding process
• the attention is not paid to the themes identified in previous research on the topic

 

 

TASK 2. Are the following statement true (T) or false (F)? Correct the false ones.

• Themes are categories into which the analysed data are classified.
• A theory is broader than a theme.
• Thematic analyses focusing on semantic themes tend to be more realism-related.
• Thematic analysis is easy because it is usually a linear process.       
• Internal homogeneity implies that themes do not overlap.
