Ward, Victoria M.; And Others
Evaluation Review, v15 n2 p266-83 Apr 1991
Focus group findings were compared with survey findings for three studies in which both methods were used. Studies conducted on voluntary sterilization in Guatemala, Honduras, and Zaire with over 2,000 subjects confirm that focus groups yield information similar to that obtained from surveys and are useful in program planning.
