WHAT IS QUALITATIVE DATA? • Words & numbers, text & images & audio • Interviews, focus groups, observations, photographs, video, everyday life. . . etc! LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

WHAT IS QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS? • Qualitative research attempts to broaden and/or deepen our understanding of how things came to be the way they are in our social world. • Underlying meanings and patterns of relationship LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

ANALYSING QUALITATIVE DATA: THEMATIC ANALYSIS • One of the most fundamental tasks in qualitative research • Thematic analysis is a search for themes that emerge as being important to the description of the phenomenon (Daly, Kellehear, & Gliksman, 1997). 4 LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

CODING: WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? • Coding is the process of gathering material by topic, theme, or cases. LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

CODES ‘Codes are tags or labels for assigning units of meaning to the descriptive or inferential information compiled during a study. Codes are attached to “chunks” of varying size – words, phrases, sentences, or whole paragraphs (Miles & Huberman, 1994) 8 LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

WHAT ARE WE DOING TODAY? NVivo files: billywong. net/nvivo Introduction to NVivo interface Adding data into NVivo Create memo and annotations How to code and uncode Organise codes into hierarchies and themes • Basic queries (frequency and text) • Explore what else can NVivo do (e. g. , classifications and matrix coding query) • • • LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

• Import the remaining 7 interview data • Create 2 -3 memo/links • Create annotations for another 1 -2 data • Create 10 -15 nodes • For each node, 5 different sourcesand 10 -15 different references - Try ‘Analyze tab’, ‘coding toolbar’, LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

NVIVO FUNCTIONS: GLOSSARY 13 LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

TEXT SEARCH FUNCTIONS • Use wildcard characters • Wildcard characters are often used in place of one or more characters when you do not know what the real character is or you do not want to type the entire name. • Wildcards cannot be used as the first character of a search and they can only be used in single terms (not phrases). • You can use the following wildcards: • Asterisk (*) as a substitute for zero or more characters. For example—g*t will find get, great and gt • Question mark (? ) as a substitute for a single character. For example—g? t will find get and got but not great or grunt Source: http: //help-nv 10. qsrinternational. com/desktop/deep_concepts/special_characters_and_operators. htm LIMITLESS POTENTIAL | LIMITLESS OPPORTUNITIES | LIMITLESS IMPACT

TEXT SEARCH FUNCTIONS • Find words with similar spelling using a fuzzy search • To find words that differ by one character (added, removed or substituted) from the search term—enter a tilde (~) character after a word. For example: • 'color~' will find 'colors' or 'colour' • 'analyze~' will find 'analyzes' or 'analyse' • Specify proximity using near search characters • Finds words that are within a specified word distance from each other—the tilde (~) specifies proximity. • For example, “happy busy”~10 • Searches for the existence of the words happy and busy within 10 words of each other.

REPORTS Coding Summary by Node Coding Summary by Source Node Classification Summary Node Structure Node Summary Project Summary Source Classification Source Summary Lists your nodes and the sources that are coded at them. Any textual content coded to the node is included in the report. This report can help you to review your coding. Lists your sources and the nodes that code them. Any textual content coded to the node is included in the report. This report can help you to review your coding. Lists the classifications and attributes for the nodes in your project. You can extract this data for complementary analysis in statistical applications. Lists the nodes in your project with information about the folder location, aggregate status, nickname and color. Lists the nodes in the project including statistical information about each node —for example, the total words coded to the node, the number of sources coded at the node, and the number of users who have coded at a node. This can help you to see which themes or ideas are occurring more than others. Displays the properties of your project (for example, project name and description), the user profiles associated with your project, and lists all the items within your project. Lists the classifications and attributes for the sources in your project. You may want to extract this data for use in other applications that support text (. txt), Excel (. xls, . xlsx) or XML (. xml) file formats. If you want to export bibliographical data to reference management tools like End. Note or Zotero—refer to Exchange data between NVivo and reference management tools. Lists the sources in the project. For each source, it shows source properties and statistics, including the number of nodes that code the source. Source statistics vary depending on the type of source—for example, document source statistics include the total number of words and paragraphs, and media source statistics show the duration of the recording and the total number of transcript rows and words.
