The results, drawn from an analysis of 87 human-coded ethnographic interview transcripts, demonstrate that HHMLA can code data sets at a fraction of the effort of human-only strategies, saving hundreds of hours labor in even modestly sized qualitative studies, while improving cod...
To make sense of the data you are left with, you need to develop a coding system. The established set of codes will help you categorize your qualitative data into meaningful groups. To help you understand better, let us take the same example forward. When you have gathered customer feedback...
Qualitative researchers become skilled at coding using procedures as simple as handwritten note cards or a copy/paste function in Microsoft Word or a similar program as an aid to discover- ing recurring patterns.They may also use an array of software designed specifically for the purpose of ...
The coding process in ATLAS.ti allows researchers to organize and connect ideas. Suppose the study above involves interviewing students about their test performance and teachers. A researcher can code all of the instances where students describe their teacher as "nice," "helpful," or "strict."...
4). He reinforces this point by explaining, “Coding is a heuristic (from the Greek, meaning ‘to discover’)—an exploratory problem-solving technique without specific formulas to follow” (p. 8). This is not to suggest that Saldaña is wishy-washy in his ...
1. Deductive Coding Deductive coding is a top-down technique where you create a set of codes that correspond to the main themes in your research. Say you’re working with a bunch of interview transcripts or open-ended survey responses. You need a way to: ...

The analysis was partially inductive in nature, in that, the aim of the study was to simply de- scribe the lived experiences of the students in this set- ting. The analysis, was also, somewhat deductive, in that the coding was scaffolded within the three factors of SDT. This decision to...
Coding in qualitative data analysis also has its “dirty secrets.” For one thing, it is widely discussed but not nearly as universally practiced. This is because it is hard, focused work and therefore costly in terms of time (which, in the context of business ethnography, translates to mone...
