Interviewing
Approaches to Interview
The Participants: The interviewer and
the respondents are strangers. Hence
the investigator has to get him
introduced to the respondent in
appropriate manner.
The
relationship
between
the
participants is transitory one.
Jan 16, 2015
Dr Simmi khurana
Approaches to Interview
Interview is not a mere casual
conversational exchange: Interview is
a conversation with a specific
purpose.
It can also be conducted over
telephone also.
Dr Simmi khurana
Approaches to Interview
The
interaction
between
the
interviewer
and
the
respondent
depends upon how they perceive
each other. One should not argue or
dispute with another.
Interviewing is not a standardized
process like any chemical technician.
Dr Simmi khurana
Qualities of Interview
Data Availability: The needed information should be
available with the respondent.
Role perception: The respondent should understand
his role and know what is required of him.
The interviewer should also know his role: He should
establish a permissive atmosphere and encourage
frank & free conversation.
Respondent motivation: The respondent should be
willing to respond and give accurate answer, this
depends partly on the interviewers approach & skill.

Interviewing Techniques
Interview process consists of following stages:
1. Preparation: The interviewer should keep
the copies of interview schedule or guide.
He should have the list of name and
address of respondents.
2. Introduction: The investigator is a stranger
to the respondents. Therefore he should be
properly introduced. Interviewer should
keep identity card.
Jan 16, 2015

Interviewing Techniques
3. Developing Rapport: The interviewer
should
establish
a
friendly
relationship
of
confidence
&
understanding with the respondent.
4. Carrying the interview forward:
i) Start
ii) Ask all applicable questions
iii) If a question not understood, repeat
it slowly
Jan 16, 2015
Dr Simmi khurana
Interviewing Techniques
iv) Talk all questions naturally, never showing
disapproval or surprise.
v) Jot down unobtrusively the points which
need elaboration of verification later.
vi) Show genuine concern and interest.
vii) Should not reveal your opinion.
viii) At a time, conversation may go off the
track, be alert to discover drifting.
ix) At a time interview runs dry, it needs restimulation.

Interviewing Techniques
5. Additional Sittings: In case one single
sitting will not do then additional
sitting may be done with the consent
of respondent.
6. Recording of Interview: If note taking
is done after the interview, a good
deal of relevant information may be
lost.
Jan 16, 2015

Interviewing Techniques
7.Closing the interview: After the
interview is over, assemble the
papers and putting them in the folder,
a final handshake then goodbye.

he has asked all the questions and
recorded all the answers.

Telephonic Interviewing
Telephone interviewing is a nonpersonal method of data collection. It
is useful when
a. The survey is conducted in a very
short period of time.
b. Respondents are widely scattered.
c. Study does not involve field work.
d. Time & cost saving

Group Interview
When a number of individual with
common interest interact with each
other.
Interviewer act as a discussion leader
Sample for group can be obtained
through schools, clubs, and other
organized groups.
Dr Simmi khurana
Probing
Probing involves the use of specific words or
other interviewing techniques by an interviewer
to clarify or to seek elaboration of a person's
response to a survey question. When
respondents provide incomplete or irrelevant
answers to survey questions, it becomes
necessary
for
interviewers
to
query
respondents further in an effort to obtain a
more complete or specific answer to a given
question.

Interview Method
Dr Simmi khurana
Observation Method
In marketing and
the
social
sciences, observational
research (or
field
research) is a social research technique that
involves the direct observation of phenomena
in their natural setting.
Dr Simmi khurana
Characteristics (Observation)
It is both physical and metal activity.
Observation is selective: A researcher
does not observe anything or
everything.
Observation is purposive and not
casual.
Dr Simmi khurana
Types of Observation
Participant
Observation:
If
the
observer is a part of the phenomenon
or group which is observed and he
acts as both an observer and a
participant.
Non-participant observation: In this
method, the observer stands apart
does
not
participate
in
the
phenomenon observed.
Jan 16, 2015
Dr Simmi khurana
Types of Observation
Direct Observation: This means
observation of an event personally by
the observer when it takes place.
Indirect Observation: This does not
involve the physical presence of the
observer, and the recording is done
by mechanical,
photographic or
electronic devices.
Jan 16, 2015
Dr Simmi khurana
Types of Observation
Controlled
and
uncontrolled
observation: If the observation takes
place in the natural setting, it may be
termed as uncontrolled observation,
but when observation takes place
according to definite pre-arranged
plans, then it is termed as controlled
observation.

Projective Techniques
(A Method of data collection)
Projective
techniques
for
the
collection
of
data
have
been
developed by psychologists to use
projections
of
respondents
for
inferring about underlying motives,
urges or intentions which are such
that the respondent either resists to
reveal them or is unable to figure out
himself.
Jan 16, 2015
Dr Simmi khurana
Projective Techniques
In this techniques, the individuals
responses towards a photograph,
picture or inkblot are recorded.
Responses to theses stimuli are
interpreted
as
indicating
the
individuals own view, his personality
structure, his needs, tensions etc.
Some projective techniques are:
