Essentials of Ideal-Type Analysis

Ideal-type analysis is a systematic, rigorous method for forming typologies from qualitative data. It can be applied to a range of qualitative data sources, including research interviews, clinical case notes, and observation field notes. It lends itself to answering research questions that seek to identify different groups of participants with similar experiences, opinions, and perspectives. In this webinar, Drs. Stapley, O'Keeffe, and Midgley provide an overview of the approach, including the steps taken to conduct an ideal-type analysis.
