This article examines two approaches to analysing qualitative data, namely the template approach and the interpretative phenomenological approach. Each has been used in an evolving research project, which explores the reasons that women give for engaging in artistic occupation as a means of coping with illness. A discussion of the strengths and limitations encountered in each analytical method is provided. The key objectives of this article are to explore some of the strengths and limitations of each of these two analytical methods and to illustrate how the choice of analytical strategy may affect research findings. This may be helpful for students and therapists who are considering carrying out a qualitative research project.
