This paper will offer a worked example of Braun and Clarke’s contemporary approach to reflexive thematic analysis with the aim of helping to dispel some of the confusion regarding the position of RTA among the numerous existing typologies of TA. Over the course of numerous publications, Braun and Clarke have elaborated significantly upon the constitution of RTA and attempted to clarify numerous misconceptions that they have found in the literature. The authors themselves have identified that many researchers who purport to adhere to this approach-and who reference their work as such-fail to adhere fully to the principles of ‘reflexive thematic analysis’ (RTA).
However, confusion persists as to how to implement this specific approach to TA appropriately. Since the publication of their inaugural paper on the topic in 2006, Braun and Clarke’s approach has arguably become one of the most thoroughly delineated methods of conducting thematic analysis (TA).
