With the development and spread of technology and the internet, online data collection techniques have begun to take their place in the literature by using qualitative researchers and have made significant contributions to the qualitative method. The online in-depth interview technique, which is among these techniques, has come to the fore with the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on social conditions and research practices. This data collection technique, whose disadvantages were highlighted compared to the face-to-face in-depth interview technique, has become practical with the pandemic and its use by researchers has accelerated even more. In this article, first of all, a descriptive information will be given by comparing the face-to-face in-depth interview and online in-depth interview technique. Later, the online in-depth interview, which was used as a data collection technique in the master's thesis titled Disability Rights Activism in Turkey: A Qualitative Study on Disabled Activists will be discussed within the framework of its advantages and disadvantages, and the researcher's experiences will be shared.

NİTEL ARAŞTIRMALARDA ONLINE DERİNLEMESİNE GÖRÜŞME TEKNİĞİ İLE VERİ TOPLAMA: BİR LİSANSÜSTÜ TEZ ÖRNEĞİ

Öz

Teknoloji ile internetin gelişmesi ve yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte, online veri toplama teknikleri nitel araştırmacılar tarafından kullanılarak literatürde yerini almaya başlamış ve nitel yönteme önemli katkılar sunmuşlardır. Bu tekniklerin arasında yer alan online derinlemesine görüşme tekniği, Covid 19 pandemisinin toplumsal koşullar ve araştırma pratikleri üzerindeki etkisi ile birlikte ön plana çıkmıştır. Önceleri yüz yüze derinlemesine görüşme tekniğine kıyasla dezavantajları öne çıkarılan bu veri toplama tekniği pandemi ile birlikte pratik hale gelmiş ve araştırmacılar tarafından kullanımı daha da ivmelenmiştir. Bu makalede öncelikle yüz yüze derinlemesine görüşme ve online derinlemesine görüşme tekniği karşılaştırılarak betimsel bir bilgilendirme yapılacaktır. Daha sonra Türkiye’de Engelli Hakları Aktivizmi: Engelli Aktivistler Üzerine Nitel Bir Çalışma başlıklı yüksek lisans tezinde veri toplama tekniği olarak kullanılan online derinlemesine görüşme, avantajları ve dezavantajları çerçevesinde ele alınarak, araştırmacının deneyimleri paylaşılacaktır.
