Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to show the new computer-aided coding procedure to analyze various type of qualitative data and to perform multi-variate analyses for some quaitative data. The coding method is as follows (1)transcripts are input in ASCII format in several groups according to the time of interview or each sample of open-ended questionnnaire research and so on ; (2)the computer program disaggregates the transcripts into words to which codes are assigned (3)the codes are integrated into several meaningful categories by the cross-tabulation of two variables, time and code or sample and code; (4)a contour map made from the cross-table helps to grasp the significance of the categories and their relations in data ; and (5)qualitative description is used as a supplement for the portions of text which have no important categories in computer coding analysis. We have made two computer programs excellent in the user interface to accomplish this procedure and the manual in which usage is described. We discussed how theories in qualitatve data alanysis related to this coding procedure and concluded that Grounded theory and Narrative approach were very useful in analyzing and interpreting these data. We collected the data of newspapers in 1990's, the tables of contents in magazine for 20 years and more than 1,200 respondenses by open-ended questions: To analyzed these data, we make frequency tables, generate cross tabulations, make contour maps and perform multivariate analyses including cluster analysis and corresponding analysis. These are unprecedented analysis. The manual of computer program, the theory supported coding procedures and examples of analysis using computer coding applied for various qualitative data are printed as a research report
