A clinical nurse at a large urban hospital has decided to conduct a descriptive qualitative study related to staff nurses' perceptions of the causes of various types of violence against nurses in their facility.
 
  As part of his research design, he hosts a series of focus groups with staff nurses during each of three shifts. What is considered the main advantage of using a focus group strategy as opposed to one-on-one interviews for data collection?
  a. Individuals who are alike on some characteristic are more likely to feel safer or less anxious expressing their views, especially with difficult experiences, when participating in a focus group rather than in a one-on-one interview.
  b. Focus groups allow the researcher to gather a lot of information in a short time.
  c. Focus groups require less planning than one-on-one interviews do, because interviewers should talk little and listen more.
  d. It is more efficient and less expensive to transcribe one interview with several participants rather than to transcribe several individual interviews.
