Advantages:
• More sociable than a one-to-one interview• Raises unexpected issues for exploration• Low cost, can get results relatively quickly• Increases the sample size by talking with several
people at once

Disadvantages: • Less control than one-on-one interview• Time can be lost on irrelevant issues• Tough to analyse – talking is in reaction to other
group member comments• Groups are variable and may be difficult to
assemble• May be too few members for a representative
sample
