Focus groups

 

Based on your reading, experience, and understanding of focus groups is there a potential for a breach in confidentiality by using this technique? Why or why not?

When using focus groups should the researcher tell the participants the goal of the focus group? How much detail should they go into without “tainting” or “biasing” the focus group participants?

Write a 300- to 500-word response. Include your own experience as well as two citations that align with or contradict your comments as sourced from peer-reviewed academic journals, industry publications, books, and/or other sources. Cite your sources using APA formatting.
