## Hands-On: Qualitative Analysis | ||
|
||
[![Lecture8-Qualitative-Analysis](../assets/images/08-qualitative-coding-recitation.jpg)](../slides/08-qualitative-coding-recitation.pdf) | ||
|
||
Now we get to practice what we learned about in class last time -- thematic analysis of interview transcripts! | ||
|

> Miles, M. B., Huberman, A. M., & Saldaña, J. (2018). [Qualitative data analysis: A methods sourcebook](https://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/qualitative-data-analysis/book246128). Sage publications. Chapter 4 "Fundamentals of Qualitative Data Analysis" ([PDF](https://umich.instructure.com/courses/122789/files/4114526/download?verifier=8LwPnM4b7RQbxwiVdNLRkFZtOc71OOtFZOwLlE3U&wrap=1)) | ||
& Chapter 11 "Drawing and Verifying Conclusions" | ||
|
||
Main source for the lecture. Chapter 4 focuses on coding data segments for category, theme, and pattern development. Analytic memos and the formulation of assertions and propositions are also discussed. Within-case and cross-case analysis are compared. | ||
|
||
Chapter 11 covers analytic tactics for generating meaning from data and for testing or confirming findings. Standards for assessing the quality of conclusions are proposed, along with methods for documenting a researcher's analytic processes. | ||

[Thematic analysis: Striving to meet the trustworthiness criteria](https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lorelli-Nowell/publication/320188032_Thematic_Analysis_Striving_to_Meet_the_Trustworthiness_Criteria/links/59d775c4aca27213dfa51cc1/Thematic-Analysis-Striving-to-Meet-the-Trustworthiness-Criteria.pdf). International Journal of Qualitative Methods, 16(1), 1609406917733847. | ||
To be accepted as trustworthy, qualitative researchers must demonstrate that data analysis has been conducted in a precise, consistent, and exhaustive manner through recording, systematizing, and disclosing the methods of analysis with enough detail to enable the reader to determine whether the process is credible. The process of conducting a thematic analysis is illustrated through the presentation of an auditable decision trail, guiding interpreting and representing textual data. | ||

Rather than being a single method, current applications of qualitative content analysis show three distinct approaches: conventional, directed, or summative. All three approaches are used to interpret meaning from the content of text data. The major differences among the approaches are coding schemes, origins of codes, and threats to trustworthiness. In conventional content analysis, coding categories are derived directly from the text data. With a directed approach, analysis starts with a theory or relevant research findings as guidance for initial codes. A summative content analysis involves counting and comparisons, usually of keywords or content, followed by the interpretation of the underlying context. | ||

The paper makes the case that in every qualitative inquiry, findings, interpretations, and conclusions should be assessed for truth value, applicability, consistency, neutrality, dependability, credibility, confirmability, transferability, generalizability, or the like. Further, legitimacy should not only be undertaken, but documented and delineated in the final research report, so that qualitative research can be made public, instead of the private status that it tends to have. | ||

The first paper discusses a series of concerns with sharing qualitative research data such as the importance of relationships in interpreting data, the risk of re-identifying participants, issues surrounding consent and data ownership, and the burden of data documentation and depositing on researchers. | ||
|
||
The second paper provides researchers with an efficient way to think about and organize the types of information to share about their qualitative studies. | ||

The paper reviews the literature on the Hawthorne Effect (defined as a research participant’s altered behaviour in response to being observed) -- a common source of bias in observational research. The authors conclude that "evidence of a Hawthorne Effect is scant, and amounts to little more than a good story." |
