A structured interview is a type of interview commonly used in research where the interviewer asks each participant the same set of questions in the same order. This ensures that everyone has a fair chance to answer the same questions, making it easier to compare their responses. In GCSE Sociology, students learn about different research methods, and structured interviews are seen as a reliable way to collect data because they allow researchers to gather consistent and comparable information. They are often used to study people's views and experiences on a variety of topics.
