Qualitative Research and Its Practical Applications Dr Amina Rashad and Dr Nahed Kandeel
Data Analysis“a lot of hard work” (Polit & Hungler 1993) • Thematic and pattern analysis • Content analysis • Burnard’s 14 stage analysis Dr Nahed Kandeel
Computerized data analysis • In recent years software has been developed which can help with the analysis of qualitative data. Essentially they work on the principle of assist with the process of categorisation then collecting together items of information which appear to match under the given categories. • The packages, if properly used, can save the researcher a great deal of time but a fair amount of human input is still required to identify and check categorisation. Dr Nahed Kandeel
Computerized data analysis They also require transcripts to be prepared on a computer and some novices, may not have access to the IT resources necessary for computer analysis. • Some of the most well known software packages are listed below. • ATLAS • NVivo • NUD*IST • Ethnograph Dr Nahed Kandeel
Manual Data Analysis • Burnard’s fourteen stages of analysing interview transcripts (Burnard 1991). • Burnard’s method is based on a synthesis between grounded and content analysis approach. This method was used to categorize and code the transcribed interview data. Dr Nahed Kandeel
