Questions assessed experiences as users, during the recovery process and while working as helpers in the addiction field Topics that emerged from the text were first ordered into “emergent themes” and then chronologically organized to reflect temporality or logic within the themes and “master themes” formed and help ing by To increase reliability the emergent themes and master themes were defined in a group utilizing IPA . of researchers (the researchers who were the members of this group are co-authors of Study 1) The study was conducted in two drug rehabilitation centers Participants: 6 male patients who were self-identified SC users and attended treatment to examine Semi-structured interviews were conducted by the author of this book (the interviews personal lasted 45-60 min.) interpretations of | Questions assessed participants’ experiences of SC use, and how did they perceive experiences themselves when they used the drug derived from the use of synthetic cannabinoids During the analysis emergent themes were formed and in the second stage patterns across the emergent themes were identified and clustered into master themes To increase reliability the emergent themes and master themes were defined in a group of researchers (the researchers who were the members of this group are co-authors of Study 2) to examine how the users perceived their selves during the use of SCs to assess how identity formation is affected by the use of SCs The study was conducted in two drug rehabilitation centers, that work with a recovery approach Participants: 6 male patients who were self-identified SC users and attended treatment Semi-structured interviews were conducted by the author of this book (the interviews lasted 45-60 min.)

In the second stage, patterns and themes across the emergent themes were identified a clustered into more abstract master themes To increase reliability the emergent themes and master themes were defined in a group of researchers (the researchers who were the members of this group are co-authors of Study 3) to explore the lived experiences of voice hearing individuals to examine how participants make sense of their voices to examine what does recovery mean in this context to explore the role of self-help group by utilizing IPA The study was conducted in the Semmelweis University Community Psychiatry Centre Awakenings Foundation voice hearers’ self-help group Participants: three female and three male patients were recruited who were members of the voice hearing self-help group and who have experience of recovery from a mental health problem Semi-structured interviews were conducted by an interviewer (Marta Kiss) who is working as a psychologist at the Foundation and knows the interviewees personally Questions assessed the experience of voice hearing and recovery, interviewees were asked to tell the interviewer freely about their life, especially about their psychic disorders, problems or difficulties and about recovery During the analysis the interview transcripts were analyzed; primary themes, keywords and notes were identified, after active re-reading emergent themes were characterized, by merging the emergent themes, master themes were defined To increase reliability the emergent themes and master themes were defined in a group of researchers (the researchers who were the members of this group are co-authors of the Study 4)
