2. FocusGroups

By their nature focus groups aredesigned to facilitate a free and candiddiscussionof key issues.Groupdiscussionsandfocusgroupsprovideanalternativetoone-on-oneinterviewsandareusedtogatherdatarelatingtothefeelingsandopinionsofagroupofpeoplewhoareinvolvedinacommonsituation.Theycanbeconductedface-to-faceorviatele-/video-conferencing,etc.

Overview:

• 4–12participants• Guidedbyamoderator/facilitator• Promotesinteraction• Canprovokeburiedresponsesandallowairing• Maycausesomeparticipantsto‘optout’orremainsilent• Thechallengeistoensurethatallmembersfeelcomfortableparticipatingandthatno

GuidelinesTheprecisenumberoffocusgroupparticipantsdependsonthenatureoftheindividuals,thetopicandtheskillofthemoderator/facilitator.Themorecomplexthesubjectmatter,thesmallerthenumberofparticipants(Saundersetal2016).

CollisandHussey(2003)recommendthefollowingstepsinformingandrunningafocusgroup:

Ø Inviteagroupofpeople,withsufficientexperienceincommon(e.g.earlycareerresearchers),toattendataneutrallocation

Ø Introducethegroupmembersandoutlinethepurposeofthestudyandhowthefocusgroupwillbeconducted

Ø Startthesessionwithabroadopenquestion–whichmaybeonaflipchartoroverheadprojectorscreen

Ø Allowthegrouptodiscussthetopics,interveningtoensurethatallparticipantshaveanopportunitytocontribute

Ø Usethelistofpreparedtopics/questionsthathavebeencirculatedinadvanceØ Recordtheproceedsontape/videoforsubsequentanalysis/synthesis.

AccordingtoSaundersetal(2016),participantsarenormallychosenusingnon-probabilitysampling,oftenwithaspecificpurposeinmindtobestreflecttheviewsofthetargetgroupwhoarecriticaltothestudy/project.Invitationstoattendshouldcomedirectlyfromtheresearcher/teamleaderratherthanthroughmanagers/supervisors,tostressthevoluntarynatureofthecall.Participantsneedtobe grouped (according to their grade/status and/or similarworkexperiences) to ensure that theywillnotfeelinhibitedinvoicingtheirpossiblecontributions.

10. Whatotherissueshaveyouidentified,orwouldyouliketoexploreunderthebroadumbrellaofgenderequality?

There are no firm rules as to the gender mix of focus group participants. Generally in a genderequality study, the norm would be to invite all genders unless the topic dictated otherwise e.g.experienceof returning toacademe,aftermaternity leave;measures thatmight induce fathers toavailofpaternity/parentalleave.
