Open ended interviews remain the default data generation technique for qualitative psychology and sociology. The commentary raises questions with Griffin’s understanding of naturalistic materials and the emic/etic distinction. It reiterates problems in the use of open ended interviews, and repeats the case for more considered support for their use.
