The study adoptedmixed methods design but only one part of data collection was successful,resulting in four in-depth interviews with mentors from Flamman. The resultsshowed numerous benefits deriving from a role of a mentor in terms of positivechanges in personality and attitudes, development of skills, and practical gains.Some negative consequences were revealed as well, specifically negative changesin personality and attitudes, and practical risks, although those were perceived asless important than the reported benefits.
