The Science and Art of Interviewing

In The Science and Art of Interviewing, Kathleen Gerson and Sarah Damaske offer clear, theoretically informed and empirically rich strategies for conducting interview studies. Presenting both a rationale and guide to the science-and art-of in-depth interviewing to take readers through all the steps in the research process, Gerson and Damaske show readers how to develop a research design for interviewing, decide on and find an appropriate sample, construct a questionnaire, conduct probing interviews, and analyze the data they collect.
