In a study on workplace dynamics, 50 video-recorded 15-minute meetings of software development teams were analysed. Two researchers used content analysis to investigate the communication styles of team leads. They found that 55% of the team leads' interactions involved collaborative facilitation (e.g., asking for input, validating others' ideas). Other behaviours identified included dominant instruction, critical feedback, active listening, and passive withdrawal.
Explain how the researchers might have carried out content analysis to analyse the video recordings of the team leads' interactions.
