Thematic Analysis_Phase 3 - searching for themes - Sally Interview - iteration 5 - Coding Memo_015

-
Continuation of combining codes into sub-themes.
A teams video call with my second supervisor, Fraser Bruce, to check that I'd not entered into a rabbit hole of nonsense themes...
Notes:

  • (note for myself: review all previous slides created during data coding to explore all summaries that could become potential sub-themes, candidate themes or overarching themes)
  • Fraser: It may be that some themes are identified, but that I choose to not pursue that route. If so, I can become scholarly and signpost the reader to articles and papers relating to that theme
  • Revisit my literature review in my upgrade document (and other literature subsequently reviewed) 
  • How will I know which themes to focus on? I answered, keep in mind the research questions.
  • Look at Katerina Gorkovenko's thesis (downloaded) to look at TA examples
  • Aiming to get the TA completed across all data sets by the end of June 2020.
  • Schedule a call in the next two weeks, with all supervisors, to review.
Slides created today, indicating potential sub-themes and candidate themes

Phase 3: Searching for themes. "Phase 3 begins when all data have been initially coded and collated. This phase re-focuses the analysis at the border level of themes, rather than codes, involves sorting the different codes into potential themes, and collating all the relevant coded data extracts within the identified themes. Essentially, you are starting to analyse your codes and consider how different codes may combine to form an overarching theme." Braun, V., Clarke V.  Using thematic analysis in psychology.  Qualitiative research in psychology 2006 Jan 1;3(2):77-101 Initial codes below, collated from memos. The next step will be to start collating these codes into potential sub-themes
