Focus Group in Marketing Research

Focus Group Interview

A focus group interview is a structured, free flowing interview with a small group of people. It is not a rightly constructed question and answer session, but a flexible format discussion of a brand, advertisement, or new product concept. The group meets at a central location at a predesignated time. Typically, it consists of an interviewer or moderator and six to ten participants, although larger groups are sometimes used. The moderator introduces the topic and encourages group members to discuss the subject among themselves. Ideally, the discussion topics emerge at the group’s initiative. Focus groups allow people to discuss their true feelings, anxieties and frustrations, as well as the depth of their contributions, in their own words.

Data collection activities provide members of an organization with their first in depth contact with a change agent, a scholar or researcher. The first impression formed during the data collection process may arouse interest, create energy, enthusiasm or attract new attention. Data collection is also part of the collection feedback cycle.

Hypothesis

By Leave a Comment

What are hypotheses?

Hypotheses are tentative answers to research problems and are expressed in the form of a relationship between independent and dependent variables. Hypothesis are tentative, since their veracity can be evaluated only after they have been treated empirically. When researchers propose a hypothesis, they lack assurance that it will be verified. They construct a hypothesis and if it is rejected, they put forward another.
