Week 7 Workshop Qualitative Research Interview Procedures Proposal Workshop: Qualitative Research Workshop: Week 7
While this exercise simulates the proposal development for conducting interviews, one way in which this is not a direct simulation is in the selection of participants. For your proposal, your intent will be to invite participants who are most likely to meet your criteria for inclusion. For this course, you are requested to invite people you know (i.e., family and friends) and exclude persons who you do not know and/or are in at-risk populations.
The IRB also provides an Informed Consent procedure for conducting your interviews. Use the “IRB Verbatim Informed Consent for Practice Interviews” document in the Learning Resources as an e-mail verbatim.
Because this is practice, it may be difficult to find participants who have experienced the phenomenon of interest. You can choose to ask your participants to pretend to have had relevant experience, or perhaps they can respond to the questions considering a similar or relevant personal experience. Remember, the purpose of this exercise is to get you familiar with the process.
BY DAY 3

In this week’s Workshop, visit your unique thread and post a response to the following:

Outline your proposed interview procedures, providing justification of each procedure included in your list. Be sure to consider and share your plan for the following:
Who you are considering interviewing
Incorporation of the exact verbiage provided by the IRB’s Office of Research and Compliance
The revised interview guide, which now includes the invitation, informed consent, introductory statement, the interview, and a concluding/closing statement
In which format to conduct the interview (e-mail, phone, or in person), with a justification for your choice and inclusion of appropriate sources (referring to articles)
Choosing and coordinating a peer debrief with one of your classmates, which can be by phone (preferably) or e-mail and will occur after you have collected your data
