Multiple or Single Case Study?

W

======= Date Modified 25 Jun 2012 16:33:58 =======
Hi everyone!
Currently I am very busy with my master thesis. I am just not sure what research method I have applied.
I have interviewed (semi-structured) several experts on a certain phenomenon.
Would you think of this as a single case study (the phenomenon) or as a multiple case study(the expters being interviewed on the phenomenon).

You see, the reason why I think of it as a multiple case study is that i asked the interviewees their views on a predefined list of themes. Therefore a cross-case method to find similarities across cases might be applicable. However... I am just not sure..
What about my unit of analysis, is that the phenomenon or the interviewees?

Can anyone help me on this?(up)

Thanks:-)
