“…Two of these groups were formed to serve African American women with breast cancer, and the other two served Latina Spanish-speaking women. Our methodological approach was drawn from naturalistic inquiry (Lincoln & Guba, 1985), in which we examined the perspectives of members of naturally-occurring groups in their own context (Coreil, 1995). This methodological approach complements our interpretivist epistemological framework, which holds that "what people know and believe to be true about the world is constructed or created and reinforced and supported as people interact with one another over time in specific social settings" (LeCompte & Schensul, 2010, p. 67).…”

Research on both cancer survivorship and support needs has been limited in its attention to survivors from culturally-diverse communities. This study examined the perspectives of members and leaders of ethnically-identified breast cancer support groups regarding the meanings and expectations attached to survivorship. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 38 African American and Latina survivors in Central Florida. Participant narratives invoked themes of spiritual renewal and deepening religious faith, and deemphasized individual responsibility for personal change. Participants emphasized the importance of shared cultural identity in shaping the survivor experience, and some Latina women drew parallels between survivorship and the challenges of migration to a new country. An unwavering display of optimism was held to be paramount. These themes are interpreted within the framework of the interplay between dominant societal discourses of survivorship and locally-constructed meanings. Findings underscore the importance for healthcare providers to be cognizant and respectful of diverse perspectives on illness.

“…Subsequently, a minimum of four cases was determined (Miles & Huberman, 1994). Consensus panel, a type of group interview, was selected as data collection method as it helped identify group decisions or unitary response to specific questions (Coreil, 1995;Fink et al, 1984). Specifically, dyad interview was utilized as it involved the data that span two individuals in the same family.…”

Despite the abundance of marketing literature on consumer complaint behaviour, little is done to explicate such behaviour from generational perspectives. How the older and younger groups complain, and whether the latter learn or inherit behavioural values from the former remain unknown. Using theories pertinent to complaint behaviour and social learning theory as the basis, the present study aims to look into complaint behaviour between two generations, namely the mothers and the daughters. A qualitative approach using dyad interview was employed in Malaysia to gain insights not only about their respective complaint behaviour but also its similarities and differences simultaneously. Subsequently, five pairs of mothers and daughters were interviewed. All interviews were transcribed and analyzed using content analysis. The findings show that while the mothers would most likely seek redress in person, complain to others verbally and take no action, the daughters tend to seek redress and tell others about it using electronic media. There is apparent similarity in seeking redress and ranting on between the mothers and daughters but the younger generation tends to do it via social media. The study thus serves as a precursor to future investigation on complaint behaviour by different generation cohorts in the same family and the potential transmission of behavioural values between them. Practical implications are provided.

“…They can be assessed directly through community meetings and through more formalized mechanisms such as semistructured needs assessment surveys or group interviews. 75,76 As described here, assessment also involves determining the capacity of the community and organizations to address CVD prevention. This determination includes identifying and describing existing programs and policies affecting CVD 77 (see Table 1, PATCH, Community Programs/Policy Matrix and Community Resource Inventory) Instruments have been developed to assess the capacity to promote heart health, 78,79 although more work needs to be done in this area.…”
