Comparing interview and focus group data

In their qualitative study on quality standards for professional dieticians, Verhulst & Lamberts used interviews and focusgroups to assess a list of competencies and criteria. In a review on their analysis they conclude that both methods were relevant for the results. The interviews produced detailed information on criteria, and the focusgroups gave insight in the relative importance of the criteria.In their replies Van Fessem, Groenland and Wester discuss the validity of the conclusion that interviewing followed by focusgroup is a general model for explorative research.
