  • efore presenting MAYRING's qualitative content analysis, a short overview of the basic assumptions and definitions of qualitative research will be given.
  • "word qualitative implies an emphasis on the qualities of entities and on processes and meanings that are not experimentally examined or measured (if measured at all) in terms of quantity, amount, intensity, or frequency"
  • 4.2.2 Philipp MAYRING's approach
  • short introduction to the main points of MAYRING's qualitative content analysis. Its development (Section 4.2.2.1), basic ideas (Section 4.2.2.2), procedures (Section 4.2.2.3) and quality criteria
  • following definition of qualitative content analysis: "an approach of empirical, methodological [sic!] controlled analysis of texts within their context of communication, following content analytical rules and step by step models, without rash quantification"
  • the strength of qualitative content analysis is that it is strictly controlled methodologically and that the material is analyzed step-by-step. Central to it is a category system which is developed right on the material employing a theory-guided procedure
  • we said that qualitative content analysis aims to preserve the advantages of quantitative content analysis but at the same time apply a more qualitative text interpretation (see Section 4.2.2.1). MAYRING (2003, pp.42-46) emphasizes the following central points:
  • MAYRING has developed a sequential model of qualitative content analysis and puts forward three distinct analytical procedures which may be carried out either independently or in combination, depending on the particular research question
  • 4.2.2.3 Method and procedures
  • Obviously, the central part of the process—structuring—is derived from classical content analysis, because here, too, units of coding and evaluation are set up and arranged in a schema of categories
  • Figure 1 shows the basic proceeding of qualitative content analysis from the initial theory to the final analysis and interpretation.
  • Going into greater detail, this process of MAYRING's qualitative content analysis can also be divided into nine different stages

Guide to the Design of Questionnaires - University of Leeds - 0 views

    "This document is designed for students and novice researchers intending to carry out a questionnaire survey. Because surveys of any kind are expensive and time-consuming to conduct, it is important that the data analysis is as extensive and well prepared for as possible. The strength of the analysis depends on good quality data that in turn stems from good design of the data collection instrument, i.e. the questionnaire, and of the collection procedures. This document provides a compilation of do's and don'ts for good questionnaire design that will, if followed, make data analysis easier and faster than otherwise. The survey process is outlined to place questionnaire design in context. Also covered in this document are a number of ways in which the computer fits into various elements of the overall survey"
