description Objective (s): The framework approach was developed in the 1980s as a method to manage and analyze qualitative data in applied policy research. The aim of this article is to introduce the Framework analysis for qualitative data analysis. Methods: Electronic literature search was performed using PubMed, Science Direct, Ovid, ProQuest, and Google. Then relevant literature was retrieved and was reviewed. Results: A number of scientific evidences were identified. In general there were two types of papers: those applied framework analysis in healthcare and social investigations, and those explained about the framework analysis processes. The five steps of framework approach constitute a hierarchical thematic framework that is used to classify and organize data according to key themes, concepts and emergent categories. Conclusion: The framework approach has become popular, especially among novice healthcare researchers, due to flexibility, easy and clear steps.
