Abstract:
This article considers the philosophical underpinnings that have shadowed the emergence of focus group methods as a counterpoise to positivist research design. Examples of the application of focus group methods are drawn from two studies where the voices of marginalized groups were facilitated: 1) focus groups with patients diagnosed with personality disorder; and 2) focus groups with gypsy travellers. In both groups there were varying degrees of coherence in communication although particular attention here is paid to the role of dissonance and `negative dialectics' in the formation of opinion. Data generation in focus groups is considered in relation to group size, structure and clinical techniques.

Full text
Abstract:
Just as an individual is rightly concerned about the privacy of their personally identifying information, so also is a group of people, a community, concerned about the privacy of sensitive information entrusted to their care. Our research seeks to develop a better understanding of the factors contributing to the sensitivity of community information, of the privacy threats that are recognized by the community, and of the means by which the community attempts to fulfill their privacy responsibilities. We are also interested in seeing how the elements of a community privacy model that we developed are related to the findings from the studies of communities. This thesis presents the results of a series of focus group sessions conducted in corporate settings. Three focus group interviews were conducted using participants from two information technology companies and one research group from the university. Three themes emerged from the analysis of these focus group interviews which are described as privacy awareness, situated disclosures, and confinement of sensitive information. These three themes capture the character and complexity of community oriented privacy and expose breakdowns in current approaches.

Abstract:
This study reviewed the literature regarding forgiveness and developed a structured group counseling format with the theme of forgiveness. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of forgiveness as used in group counseling upon depression, generalized anxiety, dogmatism, relationships, guilt, and forgiveness in the participants. Thirty subjects were selected to participate in one of three groups: an experimental group, a comparison treatment group, and a control group. The experimental group and the comparison treatment group participated in two-hour group sessions, once a week for ten weeks. The experimental group was didactic and experiential with the focus on forgiveness, whereas the comparison treatment group was problem solving using Redecision Therapy. All groups participated in pre and post test sessions. The seven hypotheses in this study were tested with a multivariate analysis of covariance as well as univariate analysis of covariance for each hypothesis. Significance in differences between means was tested at the .05 level of significance.

Abstract:
The purpose of our study is to examine how parents experienced their participation and their involvement in a solution-focused parenting group. The parenting groups are a part of the social welfare system in a town in south of Sweden. The study is conducted as a qualitative study with focus groups. 11 parents have participated. The study´s theoretical framework considers solution focused theory, social constructionism and process within groups.In the study we found that participants generally perceived their participation as positive and that they received confirmation by meeting other parents in the same situation. Participants’ expectations for practical tips and advice were fulfilled indirectly through their participation, but the focus of the parent group was to strengthen the participants themselves by thinking solution-focused. Although the participants did not receive the practical advice they initially expected, the parent group's approach felt to be positive and the participants have understood the idea behind the solution-focused approach. Overall, participants felt that they have become stronger as people and thus also as parents.The study shows that based on the parents’ statements the group leaders have throughout the parenting groups been faithful to the solution focused idea and have implemented this way of thinking within its participants.This study can be seen as a contribute to the development of future solution focused parenting groups. It also shows that there is a need for parenting groups and that this kind of activity can generate positive effects for participants.

Full text
Abstract:
A la base de l'étude sémiotique du focus group, défini comme étant la pratique d'une interaction groupale, on peut identifier deux exigences théoriques distinctes, mais étroitement liées entre elles : d'une part, l'exigence de décrire et d'optimiser une pratique de recherche sociale spécifique, et d'autre part, celle d'aborder sémiotiquement un phénomène, la groupalité, qui détermine largement la vie relationnelle de l'individu. Par conséquent, on peut dire que le focus group est à la fois l'objet théorique spécifique de cette étude et le point de départ d'une réflexion sur un sujet plus vaste, soit celui des formes de la gestion du sens à l'intérieur d'un groupe. La première partie de la recherche est consacrée à l'élaboration méthodologique, tandis que la seconde partie comprend le travail de description théorique de l'objet de l'enquête. Plus précisément, en ce qui concerne la deuxième partie de la recherche, une analyse contrastive de deux focus groups est menée, afin de poser les bases pour identifier les traits distinctifs de l'objet d'étude ; le principal résultat théorique de la recherche est, en ce sens la description des processus communicatifs et relationnels au sein du focus group et la proposition d'une méthode d'analyse structurale des données produites. Enfin, à partir des considérations effectuées de façon analytique, on procède à la formulation d'une proposition interprétative relative à la description des processus groupaux en général
The dissertation investigates the focus group, a form of qualitative research widely used in social and market research. Focus groups are studied as conversational practices - rather than as analysis methods - during which different social actors are called to identify efficiency forms while handling the action course. The most relevant forms of focus groups developments are descibed through the "semiotics of practices" approach, with regards both to relationships and to communication. In this perspective, the theoretic output of the research is the creation of a methodology for the analysis of focus groups which takes into account not only "what" participants say, but also the way they argue and relate to each other from time to time. In the second section, this dissertation proposes a theoretical generalization : starting from the considerations exemplified with regards to focus groups, a general description of a "semiotics of the group" and of its consituent processes is provided

Daniels, Sarah Christy. "A Focus Group Exploration of Sexual Identity Formation in Nonmonosexual Women." UNF Digital Commons, 2009. http://digitalcommons.unf.edu/etd/256.

Full text
Abstract:
Nonmonosexuality invisibility in the scientific literature is explored as well as opposing historical viewpoints of nonmonosexuality's origins and nature. A focus group was used to explore the sexual identities of self-identified nonmonosexual women, their own journeys toward sexual identity formation, and the extent to which society has impacted their ability to express these identities. Using Consensual Qualitative Methodology (C. E. Hill, S. Knox, B. J. Thompson, E. N. Williams, S. A. Hess, & N. Ladany, 2005; C. E. Hill, B. J. Thompson, & E. N. Williams, 1997), several themes emerged: (a) defining one's identity; (b) social consciousness; (c) experiences of marginalization; and (d) strategies for managing one's identity in the face ofbiphobia. Results are discussed in light of focus group dynamics and benefits. Keywords: qualitative analysis, focus group, bisexual, women, identity formation, social structure
