Designing semi-structured interview guides for interpretative phenomenological analysis and reflexive thematic analysis
Semi-structured interviews are the most common data generation strategy for many qualitative research approaches. While there is copious advice about the “what” of interview questions (types, phrasing, good practice) and conceptual and theoretical aspects, there is little guidance through the practical process of creating them (“how to”). There is a particular gap for guidance tailored to specific approaches such as interpretative phenomenologica…
Development of a nature connectedness intervention for disordered eating using a person-centred approach
Young peoples’ lived experiences of shifts between face-to-face and smartphone interactions
Users of smartphones are finding new ways to shift between the online and the physical world, due to increases in the number of people who go online while ‘out and about’. This study focuses on youths’ lived experiences of using and managing their smartphones and how they navigate their shifts between face to face and digital interactions. Semi-structured interviews with seven smartphone users were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological A…
Exploring Buddhism as a ‘Tool’ to Support Well-Being
Buddhism is an ancient religion and philosophy of living that is practised worldwide. More recent interest in mindfulness as a practice and intervention in the West has highlighted Buddhist-derived concepts as useful in supporting health and well-being. As a result, the desire to understand Buddhism in its more complete form has strengthened. Although research into mindfulness and compassion is growing, there is a new interest in second-generatio…
Dispositive analysis – Overview and proposed approach
Traditionally, discourse analysis methodologies such as the Foucauldian discourse analysis have had a linguistic focus. However, apart from the discursive form, knowledge is also built into and transmitted through non-discursive means, such as actions and object materialisations. The dispositive is a heterogenous ensemble of speech, action and object materialisations, linked by a common thread of knowledge, acting as a single unit to fulfil a str…
Do you mean I'm not whole
This study explores the role of others in supporting younger women who opt not to reconstruct their breast post-mastectomy. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six women diagnosed with breast cancer in their 30s/40s. The women lived in England, had been diagnosed a minimum of 5 years previously and had undergone unilateral mastectomy. An interpretative phenomenological analysis revealed three themes: Assuring the self: 'I'll love you w…
Younger women's experiences of deciding against delayed breast reconstruction post-mastectomy following breast cancer
Most women do not reconstruct their breast(s) post-mastectomy. The experiences of younger women who maintain this decision, although important to understand, are largely absent in the research literature. This interview-based study uses interpretative phenomenological analysis to explore the experiences of six women, diagnosed with primary breast cancer in their 30s/40s, who decided against delayed reconstruction. Findings reported here focus on …
The Accordion and the Deep Bowl of Spaghetti
Since 1996 Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) has grown rapidly and been applied in areas outside its initial “home” of health psychology. However, explorations of its application from a researcher's perspective are scarce. This paper provides reflections on the experiences of eight individual researchers using IPA in diverse disciplinary fields and cultures. The research studies were conducted in the USA, Malaysia, Australia, New Zea…
Practice and Drop-Out Effects During a 17-Year Longitudinal Study of Cognitive Aging
Interpretations of longitudinal studies of cognitive aging are misleading unless effects of practice and selective drop-out are considered. A random effects model taking practice and drop-out into account analyzed data from four successive presentations of each of two intelligence tests, two vocabulary tests, and two verbal memory tests during a 17-year longitudinal study of 5,899 community residents whose ages ranged from 49 to 92 years. On inte…
