Multicomponent and cognitive interviewing

Abstract:
This chapter explores the use of multicomponent interviewing for researching beliefs. Multicomponent interviews combine multiple methods into a single interview protocol with the intention of exploring the construct under investigation from different perspectives. This is particularly useful when researching beliefs that are difficult to articulate, such as beliefs about the nature of knowledge and nature of knowing (i.e., epistemic beliefs). Cognitive interviewing, a method used to a gain more nuanced understanding of participants’ responses on questionnaires, can be used as one component in a multicomponent interview.
