Short Description:
If you work in pharmaceutical or healthcare marketing research long enough eventually you will do research in sensitive areas like sexual health, mental health conditions, substance abuse, domestic violence, discrimination, financial hardship, political opinions, and religious beliefs. However, topics such as these can also pop in in other research when we least expect it. Let’s gather for a virtual coffee chat to share what we have learned and how we have handled these situations. Hopefully we all leave with some new way of not only helping our respondent but also ourselves.

Short Description:
Moderator Neutrality: Avoiding Trigger Points When the Moderator is Emotionally Attached to the Topic. We've all heard the phrase that moderators should be neutral in their approach to the topic and refrain from letting our emotional baggage interfere with obtaining the data. But what does neutral mean?  How do we maneuver around our very human traits of having a point of view about the findings or what we wish the outcome would be on behalf of our clients?  What do we do when we have opinions on topics or when it is emotionally triggering? This webinar will answer those questions.

Short Description:
Like the broader society in which we operate, qualitative research seems designed for and by extroverts. This is true in both the experiences of the research participants and qualitative research practitioners. Recent studies have shown introverts are often more thoughtful, analytical, and reflective people and as such are potential sources of insight, subtlety, and nuance. Our industry and the users of our research cannot afford to exclude the unique contributions of introverts.  This session will be interactive and personal. Whether we’re an introvert, extrovert or somewhere in between, we will learn about our own personalities and working styles.  We will also take a close look at qualitative research itself.

Short Description:
The relationship consumers hold with products and brands has undergone an enormous shift since the pandemic. Understanding these revised relationships often requires a deeper connection than can be found through online research or around a traditional focus group table. In this session, we will explore ways we can modify methodologies and manipulate physical spaces to create an immersive experience for both research participants and users of qualitative research. Using real-world case studies, we will share a wide range of examples from the bold (using classic TV game shows as inspiration to bring segmentation to life) to the simple (how we turned focus groups into a rotating multi-segment, inter-generational experience). We will also provide examples of exciting ways to bring insights to life through experiential deliverables such as podcasts, customized video, and even graphic novels.

Short Description:
A human-first approach should be at the core of everything we do. Yet, our relationship with research participants is often transactional, ending after they receive the honorarium.  In this session, we’ll discuss how this one-sided interaction contradicts human-centered design and blurs the lines of ethical research. Our speakers will draw from knowledge gained through their combined 15+ years of conducting qualitative research studies for Fortune 500 companies to illustrate the necessity of building an ethical, trauma-informed two-way bridge between researchers and participants.

What is the purpose of your follow-up questions? Are you truly interested in what the respondent is telling you or are you merely confirming your hypothesis about the meaning of their answer? Learn about this and other traps that intervene with asking the most useful follow-up questions. What are the origins of RIVA’s saying “probe till you puke?” And more about what’s so bad about asking someone ‘why’ they said or did something?

What you need to explore to yield information about the drivers and motivations that influence consumer behaviors? Create questions designed to capture the language of the consumer or target population. Are you getting the actual voice of the consumer or yes/no answers? This webinar will help you create a structure to your guide that goes beyond the obvious, top-of-mind answers into the thoughtful “I never thought about this topic in this way before” responses? What are the best kinds of questions that evoke that?

Short Description:
As we head into the 2024 U.S. presidential election, political research will be front and center, with qualitative research playing a key role in uncovering the “why” behind voters’ views on candidates and issues.   In this Qcast, we’ll take a look under the hood of political focus groups with Rich Thau, moderator of the Swing Voter Project. We’ll see and hear from Rich about how he conducts and reports on his monthly focus groups with swing voters. He’ll discuss tips and learnings from his years of moderating these focus groups, including how he maintains his cool when discussing highly emotional topics.   For qualitative researchers, the Swing Voter Project is a rare opportunity to watch a colleague conduct focus groups. Attendees will come away with a greater understanding of the process and learnings that can be applied to other types of research.

Short Description:
Do you hesitate to take on some B2B projects because you fear it will be impossible to find enough participants that meet your stakeholder’s very narrow criteria? You know the drill, “we want to talk to architects who use fire-retardant coatings for steel beams…. In municipal buildings.” Does your study require finding a super niche audience that isn’t readily available from your preferred B2B qualitative sample providers? Fear no more. We have invited some experts at sleuthing out these “unicorns” to join us in a panel discussion of just how they work their magic. From recruiting standard industry executives to uncovering the super niche audiences as well as options for DIY-ing it…we plan to cover it all!

Short Description:
One of the greatest assets a research team can utilize is their own community of participants. Communities allow researchers to recruit from their own pool of curated participants. Communities allow brands to fully-control the experience their customers have when participating in research. Communities also allow agencies to save cost on recruitment all while recruiting from a trusted source that they have full control over. Communities are one way we can fix our data quality problem.

Foundational training as a moderator makes a strong imprint, and those key principles stay with us. Over time, the core of the foundations remain, but what comes next to continue to evolve our technique? No matter what area of qual research you practice, industry changes and the introduction of new technologies require us to keep our skills aligned with what the demands of the industry are and how we continue to deliver differentiated approaches and deliverables in our work. With subtle changes in perspective and an openness to continue to reflect on our approaches to questions, we can feel refreshed and energized about new ways to do our work.

Short Description:
In this session, Frankie will share on behalf of the Insights Association's IDEA Council what to consider when asking about gender identity and sexual orientation for qualitative recruiting and respondent engagement. Often we are going with the default when asking about a person's identity, which can be disaffirming or misaligned to how they identify and negatively impact their research experience with us. The IDEA Council has been working on a collaborative industry initiative to shed light on asking demographic questions inclusively and thoughtfully, and these are the results.
