I know that can feel frustrating though it is a part of the process - we have all been there. To hopefully move you along I would recommend watching my three videos on this. They're called "HOW TO GET IDEAS FOR YOUR RESEARCH PROJECT" :-)

@@socialdesignwithkirstine Thank you, I needed that.

Makes me so happy to hear! :D

Thank you so much! That's really wonderful to hear :D

Hi Trey, great questions! In general it is all about how you introduce the prompt. Be as explicit and meta about what is going to happen and maybe reassure that there are no right or wrong answers and that they can say if they don't feel comfortable talking about the scenario/statement. This will also help affirm the rapport before going ahead with the prompt. Also, prompts should be in the latter part of the interview so you have a chance to feel your participant out and strengthen the rapport during the interview. If during the interview you can sense that your participant would not be comfortable with this type of prompt, I would change strategy and maybe not do the prompt at all. I have, however, never experienced this to be the case personally. There are also various degrees of how "provocative" the scenarios/statements can be - I would maybe call them "stimulating" more than "provocative". With regards to framing the situation to draw the participant out, do you mean the interview situation or the scenario/statement on the card? Could you clarify what you mean if the above answer didn't cover it? :-)

It does help my understanding if you frame it as 'stimulating' rather than 'provocative'. I was taking it in terms of a similar strategy in debate, the provocative framing. During cross examination, you deliberately ask your question to propose a construction that's wrong, and clearly refutable, with the express intention of getting the other person to attack it and correct it. Such as, for instance, if you were to question someone over climate change and ask "Didn't we have record cold weather during February last year? Surely if it's getting warmer, we'd not be seeing record cold temperatures in Nevada". Someone with a climate background would immediately seize on how polar vortices form and how that fits into the model. The above tactic, however, can be pretty hostile and tends to be something more useful to an investigative journalist catching someone out rather than getting them to expound and find their voice. I think I see where you're going with it, but the method probably needs a clear example to show how you would construct a 'stimulating' prompt, such as: what criteria make it stimulating; how do you avoid biasing the answer; and are there good rules of thumb to determine if it's too stimulating? I'm reminded of how social media's driven by engagement, and how not all engagement is equal.

@@hardwarejunkie9 Of course the framing depends on the context of the questioning. I'm talking about it in the context of qualitative research where the style you would use in a cross examination would be horrific. And yes, that's some really good points about the didactics of it. Thank you for those :D

Thank you for the support, Saif! :D

That makes me very happy to hear, Sherlon! :D

Awesome 😁

Thank you for saying this! That is really encouraging to hear 😄

I'm so happy to hear, Eman! 😀 And thank you, I do my best 😉

@@socialdesignwithkirstine believe me you're doing a great effort and leaving a very impressive impact👏. I know it might be a little bit discouraging that though all the wonderful tips you provide, still you have few followers🤦. But just keep going and keep spirits up 💪. Impacting only one person really matters ☺️. I'm a PhD candidate pivoting recently from academia to UXR and its seems so frustrating that regardless of my years of research experience using both qualitative and quantitative methods, I still can't even find even volunteering opportunities to practice UX. But I'm doing my best and still try to focus on the bright side, believing that my efforts will eventually pay off, someday 😊.

@@emanyahia9940 Thank you for your support, Eman. It is greatly appreciated. I'm just happy that people find the videos helpful 😄 I wish a lot of luck and I'm sure that your efforts will pay off 🙏

I'm so happy to hear! 😀

Hi Wissal, thank you for your comment! As I understand your comment, the issue is that you can't meet your participants in person? If that's the case, I would suggest setting up a video call with them on zoom for instance. Let me know if the problem has to do with something else :-) //Kirstine

Aw, thank you, Jasmine! That makes me very happy to hear :D

Hi Natali! Thank you so much for your kind words - I'm happy that the videos are helpful. You're always welcome to reach out (email in the description) if you need help with anything specific. Have a great weekend! :D //Kirstine

@@socialdesignwithkirstine Hi Kirstine! From now on, I won't miss any of your videos! Your work it's absolutely helpful :)))

So happy to hear!

I'm so happy the hear!

Hey Lujain, happy to hear that the video was helpful! I would love to take a look at your questions. You can send me an email (the email is mentioned in the description of the video) and I'll get back to you as soon as possible :D

@@socialdesignwithkirstine I will share it as soon as it is ready. Thank you!

You're welcome! Thank you for your support :-)

Whoop whoop! I would love to hear how it goes! :D

I totally get you! I would start with getting very clear about what you want to learn from the interview. Both overall but also cut down into more specific topics/themes. Then start writing questions - no matter how "bad" they might seem. That way you can write yourself into better questions - it just starts with getting them out on paper. Send me an email (see the description) if you would like us to look at it together :-)

@@socialdesignwithkirstine thank you so much Kirstine

You're welcome, Kelsy. I'm happy that the video helped :D

This makes me so happy to hear, Kelsy! Thank you so much :D

Your welcome!

I'm so happy to hear, Brenda! :D
