communication or interaction in which
the subjects or interviewee gives the
needed information verbally in a face-to-
face situation. Although the interview is
generally associated with counseling or
psychotherapy,

It is used effectively to collect useful

information about individuals in many
research situations.

Interviewing requires high-level

questioning, face-to-face contact or
contact over telephone and calls for

 BENEFITS OF INTERVIEW
● Provides a deeper and detailed information : This is
because due to asking and asking of information that
can be secured.

● Permits greater depth of responses : The interview

permits a greater depth of responses which is not
possible through other methods of gathering feelings
and attitudes as it gives information concerning beliefs
and values of the participants under research.

● Data from illiterate participants : Interview is

advantageous from illiterate participants who do not

● Clarify misunderstandings: When conducting an interview a
researcher can be sensitive to the subject’s
misunderstandings and provide further clarifications on
discussion.

● Ask questions at several levels: A researcher

can plan to ask questions at several levels to gather
maximum information from the participants.

● Helps to gather other supplementary information: Other

 SUMMARY
Interviews play a crucial role in data
collection, communication, and qualitative
& quantitative research. They provide
valuable insights into individuals'
perceptions, feelings, and experiences.
Whereas structured interviews ensure
consistency and reliability, unstructured
interviews allow for in-depth exploration &
flexibility.
Then, we have gone through the
characteristics of interviews and the
benefits of interviews as well, which gives

ABSTRACT

Aim: To produce a framework for the development of a qualitative semi-

structured interview guide.

Background: Rigorous data collection procedures fundamentally influence

the results of studies. The semi-structured interview is a common data
collection method, but methodological research on the development of a
semi-structured interview guide is sparse.

Design: Systematic methodological review.

Data sources: We searched PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus and Web of Science

for methodological papers on semi-structured interview guides from October
Review methods: We analysed the data using the qualitative
content analysis method.

Results: Our analysis resulted in new synthesized knowledge on the

development of a semi-structured interview guide, including five
phases: (1) identifying the prerequisites for using semi-structured
interviews; (2) retrieving and using previous knowledge; (3)
formulating the preliminary semi-structured interview guide; (4) pilot
testing the guide; and (5) presenting the complete semi-structured
interview guide.

Conclusion: Rigorous development of a qualitative semi-structured
