Mind Mapping – Use in Research Data 

 Challenge : Conduct a qualitative research on use of analytics in different industries . Those interviewed   were holding a key decision - making role or involved in implementation of analytics in their respective   organizations ( in 10 countries ) . First do an exploratory exercise to analyze 5 % of the interviews   conducted by using mind mapping techniques and assess the possible suitability of the technique for   conducting large volume qualitative data analysis . 

 Selection : The selection of the research methodology , case study , is the result of reviewing the   literature of numerous authors . Researcher needs to analyze large amounts of research data with   many interconnected topic areas and communication nuances that may prove challenging to analyze   and present holistically using the traditional linear thinking models . Want to study specifically   whether considering the technique as a viable and complementary approach for analyzing complex   qualitative data is advantageous 

 Application : In mind mapping research technique research participants are instructed to construct their   experiences graphically . This viable and complementary approach to the conventional data collection   methods ( interviews ) helps collect more detailed and reflective information from participants . This is   proven by the differences in the number of focus points identified by participants using and not using   the technique resulting in the conclusion that people who use the technique can generate more   ideas / focus points / concepts from the research than people who do not . Furthermore , research   participants who use mind maps to record information provide more in - depth responses by connecting   various concepts / ideas / focus points and providing examples from their experiences . 

 However , to use mind - mapping technique to analyze qualitative data ( interviews ) , researcher reads the    transcribed interview and then underline the relevant information and identify the themes in that   transcript and then record the relevant interview data and themes on a mind map . 

 Insight : This study analyzed a sample using mind mapping to investigate the suitability of technique for   analyzing large amounts of research data . The answers to questions like how and why analytics is being   used in different functions across organization were clearly more insightful compared to traditional data   analysis techniques . 

 Approach : Mind mapping in research data is not very common . However , with pilot runs it proves that   the technique can be beneficial and yields deeper insights . Probably at the time of interview the persons   being interviewed should also be encouraged to draw some graphics linked different   concepts / ideas / points and identify the themes .
