What Is Qualitative Research?

Qualitative research focuses on exploring the why behind consumer behavior rather than just the numbers. It uses open-ended methods to gather rich, descriptive data that provides context and depth.

 

Examples of Qualitative Research Studies

  • Focus Groups
    Small group discussions led by a moderator to explore opinions, attitudes, and reactions to products, services, or concepts. Ideal for brainstorming and testing ideas.
  • In-Depth Interviews
    One-on-one conversations that allow researchers to probe deeply into individual experiences and motivations. Perfect for sensitive topics or complex decision-making.
  • Ethnographic Studies
    Observing participants in their natural environment to understand real-life behaviors and cultural influences. Useful for uncovering authentic insights.
  • Online Communities
    Digital platforms where participants engage in discussions over time. Great for longitudinal studies and ongoing feedback.
  • Diary Studies
    Participants record their experiences and thoughts over a set period. Helps capture real-time insights and behavioral patterns.
