Reviews

I highly recommend How to Interview and Conduct Focus Groups to university instructors who are teaching interview methods and students who are learning them. Katz-Buonincontro describes key differences between one-on-one interviews and focus group interviews and provides detailed strategies for conducting interviews, transcribing them, and coding and analyzing interview data. She also explains the key roles of theory and researcher identity in the research process and how to prepare one's qualitative results for publication. This will be a very useful guide for novice researchers! --Peter Youngs, PhD, Professor, Department of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education, University of Virginia, Charlottesville With great sense of an experienced researcher and educator, Jen Katz-Buonincontro leads us through the why and how of qualitative research practices, from reflecting and deciding upon theoretical perspectives and research design, to the nuts-and-bolts of crafting interview protocols, coding, analyzing, and presenting rich qualitative data. Written with candor and in a conversational tone, the book emphasizes the role of reflexivity and positionality in building respectful relationship between researchers and interviewees, an ingredient ultimately leading to uncovering and telling delightful truths about people and their experiences. This comprehensive guide to interviewing and conducting focus groups, full of useful tips and resources, is a must-have for new and seasoned qualitative researchers alike.? --Magdalena G. Grohman, PhD, Associate Director and Researcher at Center for Values in Medicine, Science, and Technology, The University of Texas at Dallas
