Data Analysis
The focus group interview was transcribed by an experienced transcriber enabling accurate tracking of individual contributions to the focus group interview. This enabled a more cogent and coherent transcript. Two members of the research team independently utilised thematic content analysis to analyse the transcript of the interview. Thematic analysis involves selecting themes or variables and then coding according to the different categories of ideas or phrases (Kermode, 2004).The themes identified by the two researchers working independently were then reviewed together while confirmation of themes and clarification was sought through cross-checking against the transcription. A series of discussions within the research team, further cross-checking with the transcription and observer records, and careful recording of field notes kept as an audit trail were instituted to ensure the trustworthiness of the data.
