An increasing number of qualitative research studies make use of video data in the form of videotape, videodisks, recordable DVDs, and other visual media. Video is useful in a wide variety of contexts for many different purposes. The use of video involves recording and playing back visual and audio components of events, contexts, and interviews, which are the staples of any qualitative study. Because video can transfer this information in a fairly direct manner for later study and analysis, the quality and detail of virtually any research study can potentially be improved by the use of video. This chapter discusses collecting qualitative video data and video data analysis and interpretation. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
