  • Group interviews
    • ADVANTAGES:
      • Wide range of views on a topic
      • Individuals may be recruited to take part in single interviews.
      • Individuals may feel more comfortable sharing their experiences as the members of the group are supportive.
    • DISADVANTAGES:
      • Need to be carefully managed, especially when it is a sensitive topic.
      • Interviewees may be influenced by eachother; there may be a prominent voice meaning others wont be heard as much.
      • The researcher cannot confirm confidentiality within a group interview like in a individual interview.
