How to do a research interview

After a short introduction looking at Steinar Kvale's 10 criteria of a good interviewer, this video examines two interviews: one a short and rather poor attempt, the other a longer and much improved version. It is designed to help anyone learning how to undertake research interviews in the social sciences.
In addition to the references mentioned in the video you might be interested in this text by colleagues of mine: King, N., & Horrocks, C. (2010). Interviews in Qualitative Research. London: Sage.

let me start off by saying i'm a college freshman taking intro to sociology 101. and i have learned SO MUCH MORE about this topic by watching your videos than i have learned in lecture. i think i have 5 pages worth of notes from 20 minutes of video than 3 hours of classroom time. you've literally saved me from a Failed assignment. Thank you truly!

Thank you! I do believe I would have made all of the errors pointed out had I not watched this instructional before my upcoming interviews. Seeing the vivid contrast of the two examples are definitely going to work in my favor. I feel more confident now. Thank you!

MJ,
you're right, the interviewer does seem to overdo it a bit. However, it is a matter of judgement on the part of the interviewer just how much she/he has to reassure the interviewee and check that everything is understood and that the interviewee feels fine. Perhaps, it was the interviewer's judgment that this interviewee lacked confidence and needed both reassurance and time and opportunity to take in the conditions of the interview. In the end it didn't seem to harm the rapport.
