In-depth research into the motivations behind the attitudes and buying habits of consumers - it does not produce statistical data as they have to be interpreted.
Main examples of qualitative research include focus groups.
Focus groups - free ranging discussions led by a psychologist among groups of 6+.
Advantages of focus groups -
- may reveal a problem or oppotunity the company had not anticipated.
- reveals consumer psychology such as the importance of image and peer pressure.
