“…Text data from transcripts and notes were evaluated using the content analysis method (15) , whereby codes were developed based on repeat comments, concepts and keywords identified from the text following several readings of a few transcripts. These codes were used in categorizing concepts in the remaining transcripts, with new codes developed when new words or concepts emerged.…”

“…This method focuses on making valid and replicable inferences from text data to their cultural and social contexts (Kippendorff, 1980;Weber, 1990). Central to this method is a systematic classification process of text data into fewer content-related themes that share the same meaning (Cavanagh, 1997;Downe-Wamboldt, 1992). Themes were inductively developed rather than being superimposed upon the data (Kondracki, Wellman, & Damundson, 2002).…”

Nurses not only need to be familiar with the professional guidelines of discipline and but also be aware of variances in styles of acceptable discipline across cultural groups. The goal of this study was to explore cultural influences in relation to (1) first generation Korean American parents' perceptions of common discipline strategies in the United States and (2) discipline strategies commonly used among first generation Korean American parents. Inductive content analysis was used to analyze interview data from seven first generation Korean American parents. Derived themes indicated that parents considered spanking/hitting and less hugging/kissing as Korean style and time out, using a sticker chart, hugging/kissing, removing/adding privileges, and giving chores as American style. Recent immigrant parents were not familiar with common positive discipline strategies in the United States. As they adapted to the mainstream society, they discontinued what they perceived to be negative aspects of Korean style and adopted positive aspects of American style. They were sensitive to children's views on discipline and they experienced communication difficulties with children. These findings indicated that Korean American parents' perceptions on discipline strategies were shaped by living in two cultures and were different from the western viewpoints.

“…Qualitative methodology with an inductive content analysis approach was used (Cavanagh, 1997; Elo & Kyngäs, 2008; Schreier, 2012). This method was used to describe and explain the adolescents' and parents' experiences and needs in the context of the transitions process to explain how the needs and expectations can be met during the process.…”

AimThe aim of this study was to investigate experiences and needs in the transition from child to adult care in an outpatient clinic from the perspective of adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and their parents focusing on which aspects in the transition could ease the process.DesignA qualitative design with an inductive approach.MethodsInductive content analysis was used to analyse individual interviews with three parents and three adolescents from a rheumatology clinic in Denmark.ResultsThree descriptive categories emerged: “Information during transition,” “Personalized care” and “A change of roles.” The comparative analysis of the categories revealed two explanatory themes: “To move from something known to something unknown” and “To develop and change.” We found that preparation for transition, information of organisational and procedural changes when entering adult care, continuity and relationships with health professionals characterised by trust as well as involvement of adolescents and parents will ease the process of transition.
