So sorry to ask but could you direct me to how to write the invitation for potential candidates to attend the interviews for the research? Thanks so much

I can't thank you enough! I've read numerous books and articles but this is the only thing that has given me a clear understanding of qualitative analysis. You are a life saver.

Agree. My supervisor kept telling me to read those articles about qualitative analysis but the problem is they are not practical for a beginner who' s going to start their first qualitative analysis.

Can we say We develop a scale after thematic Analysis, but before Pilot study?? As i am going to conduct a research for my thesis. I will do thematic Analysis, Then thems will be counvert into Scale items/scale. But I am not interesting to do pilot study for thesis work, Is that right or Should I go for Pilot study as well???? Plz give you valuable suggestions.

Yes. Same here. I've downloaded so many power points and pdfs, surf the net and read books, and it really messed me up not until i saw this video. Thanks a lot from Philippines with love!

Your voice is ASMR for researchers - I can't thank you enough for clarifying and calming in one go.

As a second-semester PhD student, I can say that this is very informative, useful, and easy to understand. Thank you, Dr. Löfgren!

Thank you. This tutorial taught me in few minutes what I could not learn in an entire semester.

The most simplified guide on qualitative data analysis ever! Thank you a bunch for sharing this!

Once again, a youtube video solved my strugles. This was exactly what I needed in my graduation research. Thank you, Kent, for this helpful and clear video.

Thank you so much!!! You've been able to help me get rid of that "drowning in data" feeling. been stuck on this dissertation a while and having someone explain this with examples is priceless.

Thank you! This is such a great help! The books I was reading were leaving me more confused than when I started. Your video cleared up many questions I had.

Thanks ,, it just save my life man. Easy, simple, super clear, thank you very much!

Seven years later, you helped another person. Honestly, thank you!!

Glad to hear it!

Kent - hurrah! Wonderfully presented - wow. Simple, but complete. And your vocal style is really, really relaxing for us harried would-be-researchers. Working on my first real research paper as a graduate student. I am usually close to tears under the cascade of data and formal requirements. I'm so glad your video was a top hit on Google. Thank you.

I am really greatful for this video. I have up to 7 standard books on qualitative research and seemed very overwhelmed with the sheer amount of data including the interview transcripts that I had generated. I had very little time and was really overwhelmed and didnt know what to do next until I came across this video. Thank you!

The best video I watched in 2019, made my life so much better and wiped so much stress out of my mind

Thanks for this! Dissertation due in two weeks and I've yet to analyse my data but this has been so helpful!

I can read books forever and it rarely gives me the integral overall information I need. Your audio tutorial has consolidated my general preconceptions of doing analysis and also given me additional concepts and processes. Many Thanks.

Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial, Mr. Kent. It was crystal clear and easy to comprehend. All the best for you!

STEPS MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO Step1: Reading the transcripts Step2: Labeling relevant pieces Step3: Decide which codes are the most important, and create categories by bringing several codes together Step4: Label categories and decide which are the most relevant and how they are connected to each other Step5: Decide if there is a hierarchy among the categories, if one category is more important than the other or draw a figure to summarize your results. Step6: Write up your results

Is it possible to work manually with large data? What could be other method please explain.

After reading for days about qualitative analysis and feeling more and more confused your presentation finally gave me something I can work with.

THIS is awesome! Thank you so much for this video! Most people just tend to make things more complicated than what it actually is, but you explain it all in a simple & straightforward way. Now I know what to do with my data. :)

This was exactly what I needed! Thank you so much for putting it so concisely!

Thank you Kent, this makes it easier to understand research analysis. Thank you for spending the time to help people with their projects.

Thank you SO much for sharing this. I am doing my masters and my research involves qualitative interviews. I was feeling very overwhelmed by all the resources and texts out there, and this really helped simplify things for me! I really appreciate this short, simple, and accessible explanation of the possible steps :)

Thanks Kent. I have been a qual practitioner for 30 years and internalized the analysic process completely. Now I have to explain the process to students and your video has helped me a lot. Of course there is so much more to say about this beautiful process of analytic reasoning, but this gives us a firm basis.

I was able to quickly browse through and gather all the information I need without watching the whole video. all thanks to your informative scripts and neat, bullet point presentation. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much! I'm in the middle of the qualitative research of my Master thesis and this clear construction helps me get familiar with the steps I have to take!

you will have a very special thank you note in my phd thesis :)

Had a two hours lecture on this topic but didn't even understand a bit about what to do. This has been helpful. Thank you!

Sitting on a huge pile of data right now. This video is so simple and so clear. Thank you!

I love how you are effortlessly explaining this with simplicity. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for this video! I have struggled so much trying to understand the thematic analysis process and thanks to you it has now become clear. Really am very grateful

Ahh you legend, all the reading I've done have muddled my thoughts on how to code interviews, but this video is a god send. Pretty much have saved my dissertation haha

A very nice and clear video. I am trying to combine qualitative data from interviews, questionnaires and observations and I already learned a little bit about coding, but this video really helped in how to structure it. This will certainly help me with writing my master thesis! Thanks Kent Löfgren

Thank you for this video!! I read a lot everywhere, trying to understand the main steps of this analysis and no one is like yours

I subscribed so I could repeatedly review - your video is clarifying what I must do as I prepare to do coding of interviews. Thank you.

I totally concur. I will definitely share this with my colleagues, its easy to go through the process with these guidelines. You are indeed a life saver.

Being completely new to social science methods of analysis and coming from a quantitative background, I cannot thank you enough for this helpful video!

Thank you for the clear, helpful explanation. I understand the examples in my books and articles, but when I was trying to do my own coding, I was feeling very uncertain. Your video really clarified some of the processes.

Thank you so much! Your voice is so calming and it makes me understand better. A big hug from central america!

I finally understand! Been going around in circles about this. Thanks very much!

Thank you! In a doctoral world of abstract, philosophical explanations, it is nice to have a clear simple explanations of how to make sense of interview data. Thanks! Aaron C. Kingsley - Exeter University

@Kent Lofgren - You just brought sanity into my horror on interview analysis right now Sept 27.2016!. Thank You!

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment.

Thank you so much for doing this. Helped me so much. Was just told about this today and told to demonstrate it, thank you for sharing this, and yes I am working on my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology .

Thank you, Kent. Short and sweet!

Thank you Ken. Your video was very helpful. Keep up the good work..You are making a positive impact with your videos.

Thank you so much Kent, this has been very helpful. Also doing a little research along the business lines, and your words resonate very much with my way of thinking and organising info, seeing patterns etc. I was feeling alittle overwhelmed, although new I would be able to find patterns eventually, your clip helped me touch ground level again and see it as not such a huge task after all. Remembering that it just requires time and a thoughtful process. I also wanted to add that I found your voice lovely to listen to and if I needed "eye candy", you have a little picture below the video so all good :).
