Abstract

The author, having drawn examples from her doctoral study, describes how a thematic analysis approach was employed to interpret raw data in her doctoral study which explored the impacts of a high-stakes test on students and parents in Nepal. As the main purpose of this paper is to provide some guidelines for English language teaching (ELT) practitioners and early career researchers to rigorously apply a thematic analysis approach, this paper presents a step-by-step guideline for the application of the approach. It also presents detailed examples of the processes the author followed during the analysis of her data (from familiarising with the data to identifying initial codes to preparing a fi nal report) to reveal how analysis of the raw data (from interviews and oral diaries transcripts) progressed towards the identifi cation of overarching themes that captured the nature of the test impacts in the Nepalese context described by participants in the study.

主题分析方法:英语教学研究实践者的分步指南
作者从她的博士研究中抽取了一些例子,描述了如何使用主题分析方法来解释她的博士研究中的原始数据,该研究探讨了高风险测试对尼泊尔学生和家长的影响。本文的主要目的是为英语教学从业者和早期职业研究人员提供一些严格应用主题分析方法的指南,本文为该方法的应用提供了一个循序渐进的指南。它还提供了作者在分析数据期间所遵循的过程的详细示例(从熟悉数据到确定初始代码,再到准备最终报告),以揭示对原始数据(来自访谈和口头日记抄本)的分析如何朝着确定总体主题的方向发展,这些主题捕捉了研究参与者所描述的尼泊尔背景下测试影响的性质。
