Content analysis is dynamic and widely useful, but it’s not without
its drawback. It is very time consuming (requiring lots of reading
and re-reading of the texts). Additionally, it has been accused of losing
important nuances in communication, for instance, if focusing on
words and phrases as the source of codes.
So, as you can see, using discourse analysis, you can identify how
culture, history or power imbalance (to name a few) has an effect on the
way concepts are spoken about. Because there are many potential social
influences in how we speak to each other, the potential scope for
investigation using Narrative Analysis is vast. For the same reason, it is
very important to have a very specific question in mind when
analysing the data and looking for patterns and themes.
