Remote Semi-structured Interview
A remote semi-structured interview is a qualitative data collection method in which a researcher conducts a guided, flexible conversation with a participant over a distance-bridging medium — telephone, video conferencing, or voice-over-IP — using a prepared topic guide with open-ended questions while allowing natural conversational elaboration. It combines the structure and comparability of a protocol-driven approach with the depth and flexibility characteristic of qualitative inquiry, delivered without physical co-presence.
