Savvy Researcher: Analyzing Coded Data in MAXQDA

MAXQDA is a robust software for analyzing qualitative data, including text, media, and survey data. The software is free for all University of Illinois users via a license provided by Illinois Computes. 

This workshop assumes that you know how to work with codes and data files in a MAXQDA project. If you haven’t used MAXQDA before, you can see slides and a recording of an introductory workshop online. 

By the end of this workshops, we hope you'll be able to:
1) Use activation to view data for specific codes and documents
2) Use MAXQDA reports to explore the distribution of codes across documents and how codes intersect within documents.
3) Compare coded data across groups within the data.
4) Generate an inter-rater reliability rating for multiple coders.
5) Use summaries of coded segments to develop interpretations of data.
6) Develop and export numerical reports of applied codes.
