EYCAdemy Research Project:
EYCAdemy is a comparative qualitative European youth research project. The method used for the research are focus group discussions.
Focus group research is a qualitative method that helps to discover thoughts that are not obvious. In focus groups you get answers to questions you did not ask: The open-ended interaction in focus groups leads to stimulation of thoughts and emotions, to the revelation of material which is not ordinarily forthcoming in an individual interview. Focus groups furthermore allow examination of how people in various roles interact, and the observation of important behaviour.
For focus group research the definition of the sample is of outmost importance, since qualitative research does not aim for representative results. Nevertheless the sample is drawn according the needs of the research to cover various groups and to create homogeneous group settings for each single discussion round at the same time.
For the EYCAdemy project young social researchers from different countries are specially trained in two sessions to organise, moderate and analyse focus groups.
In the first training session the trainees are intensively trained in the moderation of focus groups, in defining the research sample and guidelines. In their home countries the participants conduct research on a chosen topic. The second session aims to create an international report, comparing the national reports and defining patterns and differences.
