The process of thematic analysis Collect data – Data is gathered from sources Coding data – Researchers code the data by hand or through a software program Code validation – To ensure the integrity of the codes—that is, that they have not been misinterpreted and are free of researcher bias Themes/frameworks identification – From the codebook, the researcher identifies themes and sub-themes: patterns that have emerged from the coded data Information consolidation, finalize theme names – The researcher finalizes the name of each theme, writes its description and illustrates it with a few quotations from the original text
