- I am analyzing group interview data from four different groups all within
- the same human rights organization. I am hoping to build a descriptive
- model or the psychology of human rights advocacy. My question is this:
- When attempting to build a descriptive model when is it appropriate to
- consider the groups separately and when should the model represent a
- composite of all four groups? For example, if I find that one group
- indicates a relationship between two themes, must all groups show the
- same relationship in order for it to be in my descriptive model? OR
- is it more appropriate to take all relationships shown and present a
- model reflecting all the varieties of experience? Thanks, Todd.
