Reflexive Thematic Analysis Workshop

Monday 4 November 2024
9.30am-4pm

The Centre for Person Centred Research is running a reflexive thematic analysis workshop for the Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences (FHES) staff and postgraduate students.

This one-day workshop will be an in-person event held at AUT's North Campus and will introduce the principles and practice of reflexive thematic analysis (TA), as described by Virginia Braun, Victoria Clarke, and their colleagues.

The workshop will be a mix of short lectures, practical activities and group work. While focused broadly, it is aimed at supporting postgraduate students and those new to qualitative research or reflexive thematic analysis.

We expect attendees will:

  • Develop an understanding of the principles and phases that enable the performance of a high-quality thematic analysis
  • Have gained practical experience in each of the phases of thematic analysis, including how to interpret and conceptualise data.
  • Be aware of other approaches to qualitative analysis and how Braun and Clarke’s version of TA differs from other approaches to TA.
