Sometimes, qualitative researchers write notes in margins or start recording general thoughts about the data at this 3. It involves taking data or pictures, segmenting sentences (or paragraphs) or images into categories, and labelling those categories with a term, often a term based in the actual language of the participant (called an in vivo term).
Le the data material belonging to each category in one place and perform a preliminary analysis. Use the coding process to generate a description of the setting or people as categories of themes for analysis.
This analysis is useful in designing detailed descriptions for case studies, ethnographies, and narrative research projects. Beyond identifying the themes during the coding process, qualitative researchers can do much with them to build additional layers of complex analysis.
The most popular approach is to use a narrative passage to convey the findings of the analysis. It can also suggest new questions that need to be asked – questions raised by the data and analysis that the inquirer had not foreseen earlier in the study.
Thus, interpretation in qualitative research can take many forms, be adapted for different types of designs and be flexible to convey personal, research-based, and action ent approaches to qualitative analysis. These codes then serve as a template (or ‘bins’) for data analysis; the template may be changed as analysis continues.
Typified by matrix analysis, where descriptive summaries of the text segments are supplemented by matrices, network maps, flow charts and diagrams.
