Technically, this is not a stat question but a data analysis question, =
and I think some of you might be able to give advice:
I have someone looking for a package that will help her analyze what =
she calls qualitative data and I call responses to open-ended questions, =
basically text. I expect she's looking for a package that will do =
word/phrase searches and sort/categorize/code responses. Does anyone =
have any recommendations, especially with respect to programs called =
"qualpro" or "hyperqual"?
Richard,
There are several software that will do either automatic or manual =
coding of open-ended questions. First, I would like to suggest our own =
software named WordStat that has been created to analyze responses to =
open-ended questions other textual information (journal articles or =
abstracts, email, news, interview transcript). This analysis can be =
done either automatically or manually. =20
Probably one of the most unique feature of WordStat is its close =
integration with a statistical software (The cost for both modules is =
only about $230). This integration allows you to examine possible =
associations between text variables and any other variable (sex, age, =
subgroups, response to another variable, etc.). You can get a fully =
functional version of both programs from the following Web site:
www.simstat.com
There are also several other excellent content analysis and qualitative =
analysis software on the market. You can get a comprehensive list from =
the following URL:=20
http://www.intext.de/TEXTANAE.HTM
If you have a change, try to get a copy of:
Alexa, Melina. & Zuell, Cornelia. (1999). A review of software for =
text analysis. Mannheim: Zuma.
There should be a link to the Zuma web site at the above URL.
Hope this help.
