David L Morgan

The analysis of focus groups is very similar to the analysis of individual interviews. So, you could use Grounded Theory or Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis if your study met the criteria for those methods. If you simply collected the data and now want to analyze it, some version of Thematic Analysis is a likely choice.

Frank L Attila

Thank you David L Morgan I want to use Braun & Clark 2019

Their newer book from 2022 is now the authoritative source on Reflexive Thematic Analysis.

Khaled Alostath
