Frequently Asked Questions

Research synthesis combines findings from multiple research activities (interviews, surveys, analytics) into coherent insights. It identifies patterns, contradictions, and key takeaways that inform product decisions.

Use affinity mapping: write insights on sticky notes, group related ones, identify themes. Look for patterns across sources. Distinguish between what users say, what they do, and what they need.

Lead with insights, not methodology. Use the format: "We learned [insight] which means [implication] so we should [recommendation]." Include supporting quotes but don't overwhelm with data.
