Focusgroups
What are focus groups?
A focus group study is a carefully planned series of discussions designed to obtain
perceptions on a defined area of interest in a permissive, nonthreatening environment.
- Data is generated through interaction
- Let participants listen, reflect, and consider their own standpoint further
- Not a group interview
- A naturalistic setting with spontaneity
, Why do we do focus groups?
- Diagnose problems
- Stimulate new ideas or identify new relationships
- Evaluate programs
- Interpret quantitative results
The goal is not to get consensus, people don’t need to make a unanimous decision, it could
also be interesting to discover different kinds of perspectives.

setting. je wilt mensen met dezelfde ideeën/zelfde niveau maar daarbinnen moeten
er wel nuances zijn, er mogen verschillende meningen zijn en er mag een discussie op
gang komen
