Abstract
This chapter reveals the narrative of the interview and classifies the results into 11 motive categories. It explains how the qualitative study on a thematic concept revealed that the motivating factors and impact of the oath have an influence on the participants in keeping their oath. The chapter closes with a table showing what the storytelling in the interviews indicated about participants’ life experiences, upbringing, religion, seminar, peers and the impact.
