“…'Talk amongst yourselves': Designing and evaluating a novel remotely-moderated focus group methodology for exploring group talk Group discussions represent a rich and vital source of data for many researchers exploring diverse social issues. Discursive and other qualitative approaches argue that understanding the nature of conversations that occur within society is vital for understanding societal responses to almost all social issues, with examples including climate change (Kurz & Prosser, 2021;Lorenzoni et al, 2007;Wibeck, 2014); racism (Parker & Lynn, 2002;Halse, 2017;Johnson-Ahorlu, 2012); political issues (Andreouli & Nicholson, 2018;Betancourt et al, 2015); and marginalised group's experiences of health care (Scorgie et al, 2013;Hernandez et al, 2008). Researchers inside and outside of academia have thus far adopted focus groups as the primary methodological means of examining group discussions (Delli Carpini & Williams, 1994;O-Nyumba et al, 2018), with the focus group being described by some as an "established part of the methodological tool kit" for (qualitative) researchers (Barbour & Kitzinger, 1998, p.11).…”
