Abstract

Objective: To provide five methodological and pragmatic tips for conducting remote qualitative data collection during the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Method: The tips presented in this article are drawn from insights of our own experiences as researchers conducting remote qualitative research and from the evidence from the literature on qualitative methods. The relevant literature was identified through searches using relevant keywords in the following databases: CINAHL, PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science. Searches were limited to articles in English and Portuguese, published from 2010 to 2021, to ensure a current understanding of the phenomenon.

Results: Five tips are provided: 1) Pay attention to ethical issues; 2) Identify and select potential participants; 3) Choose the type of remote interview; 4) Be prepared to conduct the remote interview; and 5) Build rapport with the participant.

Conclusion: Despite the challenges in conducting remote data collection, strengths are also acknowledged and our experience has shown that it is feasible to recruit and interview participants remotely. The discussions presented in this article will benefit, now and in the future, other research teams who may consider collecting data for their qualitative studies remotely.

在COVID时期进行远程定性数据收集的五个提示:理论和实际考虑。

目的:为COVID-19大流行背景下开展远程定性数据收集提供5点方法和实用提示。方法:本文中提出的提示来自我们自己作为进行远程定性研究的研究人员的经验见解，以及来自定性方法文献的证据。通过使用相关关键词在以下数据库中检索相关文献:CINAHL、PubMed、SCOPUS和Web of Science。搜索仅限于2010年至2021年间发表的英语和葡萄牙语文章，以确保对这一现象的最新理解。结果:提供了5点建议:1)关注伦理问题;2)识别和选择潜在的参与者;3)选择远程面试的类型;4)做好远程面试的准备;5)与参与者建立融洽的关系。结论:尽管进行远程数据收集存在挑战，但优势也得到了承认，我们的经验表明，远程招募和采访参与者是可行的。本文中提出的讨论将有益于现在和将来可能考虑远程收集定性研究数据的其他研究团队。
