    Thank you very much ❤ I learned more from your videos than my actual Uni class ❤ you have a natural talent of breaking down difficult matters into simple ones ❤ I have a question please, can I conduct thematic analysis from 3 sources (Interviews, tweets and press releases) for the same research or does it have to be only one? Thanks ❤

    Wonderful. Thank you so much. Two small suggestions. (1) The differences of thematic analysis from qualitative content analysis and (2) thematic analysis from findings in systematic literature review studies will make an important contribution.

    Hi! Your comment seems a little dry don’t you think? “My expectations” “why don’t you”… all sounds a little patronizing doesn’t it? I hope you realize she is a KZread creator and does not owe you anything? A nice way to provide feedback is to start by thanking the person for the free service she is offering here, and then perhaps suggest what could be done to improve it, as per your experience.

    @@manouxkaoh please. He provided feedback. People don’t come on KZread searching for things like Thematic analysis unless they actually need it for some work. If you made a video promising to inform us about it, please don’t feel bad when people provide feedback that the goal hasn’t been met. Like I said most people who will watch this videos are currently doing some research and time is quite precious.

    I'm conducting a thematic analysis for my interview methodology (part of my thesis). The interview focuses on validating the metrics used to compare web application security testing tools, which I've identified from my literature review. I'm currently confused about codes and themes. I'm finding it confusing. As I mentioned, I've conducted a literature review and identified 37 metrics. Should I take those 37 metrics as codes, or is there something else I should use as a code? If there's something else, could you provide one or two examples? Please help me. If my 37 metrics are codes then I'm thinking of using 4 themes: Commonly Used Metrics, Additional Metrics, Metrics that are Considered Unimportant, Evolving Landscape of Web Application Security Can someone please clarify this?
