Two hours with friend on Qualitative!!

Uncategorized Comments Off on Two hours with friend on Qualitative!!

Thanks to my one of best friends for giving me two hours on Qualitative data analysis with Invivo last Sunday. Already aware of Dedoose, I throughly enjoyed  discussing Invivo with my Amiga. . Discussing qualitative methods while dinning is great piece of quality itsfel. How  can we make every moment fruitful and use it effciently, that is what I am experiencing in this nourishing country.

*Coding in Invivo is called nodes.

* For example, suppose we are doing the research on romantic relationships… Then we can code transcript into noded like… pleasure, anger, love, affection, obsession. How obsessive  parner is in relationship, if this is the topic, then it is important to  highlight words

*Invivo give us the frequency of all words. Then it make the words bigger as per the word frequency, this is even available with google’s program.

*Kappa gives value when we compare the interpretation by various researchers on the same nodes.

Meeting with Columbia Professor!

Uncategorized Comments Off on Meeting with Columbia Professor!

I met one of Columbia Professors today, who has been doing extensive  qualitative research in India. I had qualitiful 10 minutes with this professor. She focussed light on her work in Rajasthan and how she is fond of Rajasthan and Udaipur. She is presently doing lot of work on  NGOs related things in India–How non governemnt organizations works inIndia.

 

“In our period it was more individual, now its more teamwork.

I still do it manually. Inivo just make it simple, it doenot do analysis.”

Her main foucs is on toursim now. Accroding to her, students are not that interested in  qualitative compared to quantitative. Probably, she hasn’t heard of our Lehman Professor 🙂
