Learn How to Conduct Rapid Qualitative Analysis

Our team led by Grace Ryan, PhD, MPH and Melissa Goulding PhD, MS has developed a model for academic–community partnered rapid qualitative research.

Rapid qualitative analysis is a method used to analyze thoughts, opinions, and experiences that participants share in focus groups, community conversations, and interviews. This approach organizes the information systematically, quickly, accurately, and efficiently. Rapid qualitative analysis is action-oriented and helps to make sense of qualitative data more easily. The overarching goal of using rapid qualitative methods is to translate data into actionable results to impact practice.
