Applied Thematic Analysis WEBINAR Online

Thematic analysis is a qualitative analysis approach used widely in psychology and other disciplines. It aims to identify patterns of meaning across data such as interviews and focus groups, to extrapolate experiences in relation to some kind of phenomena. In this session, participants will engage with a piece of data, and will be walked through the steps involved to analyse it using thematic analysis. In addition, participants will be taught how to write up the findings, focusing on the importance of reflexivity.

The webinar is hosted by Dr Gillian Hendry, University of the West of Scotland.

Aims and objectives:

  • To detail the value of thematic analysis for research.
  • To explain the steps involved in thematic analysis (particularly Braun and Clarke’s (2006; 2021) reflexive approach).
  • To allow attendees to have experience of conducting a thematic analysis in an interactive session with the event lead.
  • To understand how to write up a thematic analysis report.
  • To allow for personalised feedback/ answers to questions surrounding the use of thematic analysis.
