Characterising and justifying sample size sufficiency in interview-based studies: systematic analysis of qualitative health research over a 15-year period (2018, background): “For example, Green and Thorogood [38] maintain that the experience of most qualitative researchers conducting an interviewbased study with a fairly specific research question is that little new information is generated after interviewing 20 people or so belonging to one analytically relevant partici”
The impact of computerised physician order entry and clinical decision support on pharmacist-physician communication in the hospital setting: A qualitative study (2018, neutral): “The data were initially fine coded to capture detailed descriptions of the data, which were then arranged into the most salient or common themes [20].”
Generalizability in qualitative research: misunderstandings, opportunities and recommendations for the sport and exercise sciences (2018, background): “To help with all that it can be useful to think through what kind of relationship the qualitative research findings might have to the multiple and different types of generalizability that can be drawn on beyond the statistical-probability type (Green and Thorogood 2009).”
‘Rigour’, ‘Ethical Integrity’ or ‘Artistry’? Reflexively Reviewing Criteria for Evaluating Qualitative Research (2006, background): “…that tell about believable journeys through the life course ■ Ethical self-consciousness: respect for others in the field, and for the moral dimensions of the story ■ A story that moves the reader at an emotional as well as rational level (Green and Thorogood 2004, p244, adapted from Bochner 2000).”
The distinction between qualitative and quantitative research methods is problematic (2012, methodology): “Pope and Mays (1999) suggested that this holds particularly within applied research areas such as the care and health sciences.”
Memoing in qualitative research (2008, background): “Constant comparison is the basis of theoretical analysis where the goal is theory generation (Green and Thorogood, 2004).”
Qualitative methods overview (2011, neutral): “This review provides an introduction to the different ways in which qualitative research has been used in social care and some of the reasons why it has been successful in identifying under-researched areas, in documenting the experiences of people using services, carers, and practitioners, and in…”
How Many Interviews Are Enough to Identify Metathemes in Multisited and Cross-cultural Research? Another Perspective on Guest, Bunce, and Johnson’s (2006) Landmark Study (2017, methodology): “Our method for analyzing the number of interviews required to identify themes differs from the one used by Guest et al. (2006) and Francis et al.”
Focus-group interview and data analysis (2004, background): “In practice, as Green & Thorogood (2004) identified, most researchers use a combination of approaches.”
Online brand advocacy (OBA): the development of a multiple item scale (2019, background): “This length of time was deemed sufficient to provide in-depth findings and reached ‘thematic/data saturation,’ as no new insights into unique OBA characteristics were being uncovered when data collection finished (Green and Thorogood, 2004; Gaskell, 2000).”
Language and Communication in Cross-Cultural Qualitative Research (2008, background): “Positivism assumes that a single truth exists which can be “ captured ” from participants through research instruments such as a survey questionnaire (Green and Thorogood 2004 ; Ritchie and Lewis 2003).”
Understanding the Processes of Translation and Transliteration in Qualitative Research (2010, background): “Even if teams are working in the same language, respective disciplines might have their own vocabularies, with terms that have specific meanings (Green & Thorogood, 2004).”
Iterative categorization (IC): a systematic technique for analysing qualitative data (2016, background): “It is particularly suitable for novice qualitative researchers who may welcome a set of standardized steps to follow when trying to make sense of their data, but it can also reassure sceptical journal editors, reviewers or readers who question the rigour of qualitative analyses [9,39].”
A realist evaluation of community-based participatory research: partnership synergy, trust building and related ripple effects (2015, methodology): “It is based on qualitative research methods for data collection [26].”
