The collective’s voice: How the exposure of children are expressed and discussed : A qualitative focus group study (English)
Abstract [en]
This study aims to investigate how attitudes are expressed and discussed in group interaction. The background to this study is based on the debate about children's exposure on social media. Our methodological approach is of qualitative sort and the research is carried out with focus group interviews, using a photo elicity method. This study uses the theoretical perspective of symbolic interactionism and the concepts of attitudes, norms and role taking to analyze group interaction. Mead and Blumer's theories of interaction and symbolic interaction were further of great importance in gaining a deeper understanding of how attitudes were expressed and discussed in the groups. Previous research about conformity was also of importance in our study. Our result shows that the definition of the situation, role taking and compliance with social norms impact the way attitudes are expressed in groups. Further on, our result shows that the participants' attitudes are especially in need for discussion when the attitudes are not in line with the remaining group members. Last but not least our result shows that attitudes are based on attitude components and are expressed in line with these.
