A clinical psychologist is investigating the psychological coping mechanisms of professional deep-sea saturation divers during long-term underwater confinement. She conducts unstructured, open-ended post-dive debriefing sessions, making audio recordings of all sessions in which divers describe their perceptions of time, sensory experiences, and cognitive coping strategies. She also reviews daily logbooks kept by the divers during their missions.
Explain how the psychologist could carry out a thematic analysis of the audio-recorded debriefing sessions.
