1 Qualitative Research and Audiences

2 Overview Define qualitative research Examine the process of qualitative research Discuss methods of data collection Understand how to use qualitative research tools in the study of audiences.

3 What is qualitative research?

4 What is qualitative research? Qualitative research is interdisciplinary, interpretative, political, and theoretical in nature. Using language to understand concepts based on people s experience, it attempts to create a sense of the larger realm of human relationships. ---Bonnie S. Brennan

5 Interdisciplinary Encompasses many areas of study Mass Communication qualitative research often borrows from Political Science and Women and Gender studies and vice versa. Commonly used in social sciences and market research

6 Theoretical Grounded in theory Set of principles or an idea about a phenomenon or human behavior guides research Uses theory to help explain research subjects Example: Cultural studies, feminist, Marxist theories

7 Political Ideology influences how qualitative research is approached Ideology influences what issues are dealt with, and how they are treated in qualitative research Example: Ideological beliefs about vaccinations may influence what types of questions are asked.

8 Interpretative Quantitative research makes meaning out of numbers and statistical data Qualitative research makes meaning out of language Sometimes thought of as subjective Always analytical

9 What s the process of qualitative research? Have an idea Develop a research question Collect Data Analyze Data Report Findings

10 The Idea Observations Interests Current phenomenon Current event Past phenomenon Past event An issue that you want to solve (market research)

11 Research question NOT A HYPOTHESIS Like a theory, research questions guide your research. Specific query to be answered through research and analysis

12 Research Question Suppose you are interested in understanding people who read romantic novels. What research questions could you develop about this topic?

13 Research Question Janice Radway Reading the Romance (1984) Reader-response Focus groups Guided by this basic, specific question: What do avid romance readers like about romance novels?

14 Collecting Data or evidence Methods include: Interviews Focus Groups Textual Analysis Ethnography

15 Interviews Typically consist of one-on-one conversation Short or in-depth Multiple sessions or a single session Conducted in person, phone, video messaging, instant messaging, or Recorded and transcribed A good interviewer employs sensitivity and skill

16 Interview Techniques Probing questions Follow-up questions Segue Pausing Giving the interviewee space to think

17 Interview Techniques Listening Avoiding leading questions Asking open-ended questions Expounding on closed-ended questions

18 Focus Group A group of 4 to 10 people come together to discuss a specific topic Duration: >30 but <2 hours Moderator asks questions as it relates to the topic of interest Questions are typically open-ended 10 to 15 questions prepared Online or In-person Recorded and transcribed

19 Textual Analysis What s a text? Anything with a message can be analyzed. A food wrapper, a book, a newspaper article, or a movie can provide a text for analysis. Thorough breakdown of the sum of its parts

20 Ethnography Have you ever people watched? Descriptive study of people and customs Embedding yourself in a subject of study by either observing or being a part of it. (Participant Observation). Human activity is the focus Ethnography is interested in what people do, their rituals, customs, and daily lives

21 Ethnography Suppose you were interested in understanding how teachers incorporate handson learning in their classrooms. How could you conduct an ethnographic study in this area?

22 How are these tools used in audience research? Filmmakers use focus groups and interviews in test screenings for movies Sony Screenings Advertisers use focus groups to message test their commercials. Food companies use focus groups and interviews in taste tests for their products. Pepsi Challenge

23 How are these tools used in audience research? Intel (1995) used ethnographic research to understand how baby boomers used PCs in their daily lives In academia, ethnography is often used in understanding media use and fan communities.

24 How are these tools used in audience research? Textual Analysis is used to a lesser extent in market research. Parents Television Council uses textual analysis in reports and blogs about inappropriate content for children. TV networks send screeners to media critics who often perform versions of a textual analysis in reviews.
