“…MacMillan and Koenig [2004], Alexa and Zuell [2000], and Mangaberia et al [2004] discuss the basis of the different types of the CAQADS software. Some other studies have addressed the application of CAQADS software to qualitative data analysis (e.g., [Hwang 2008;Pan et al 2008;Sin 2008;Housley and Smith 2011;Zapata-Sepulveda et al 2011]. It has been noted by many that CAQDASs are not softwares for automatically analyzing the data; they must rather be regarded as computer tools for helping researcher to facilitate the data analysis [Sin 2008;Weitzman and Miles 1995].…”

“…Thus, using different statistical softwares can be appropriate and helpful (e.g., [Pan et al 2008;Zapata-Sepulveda et al 2011]). For example, after coding process by NVivo the results can be exported to Excel or SPSS applications for manipulation of the quantitative data [Sin 2008] and make them ready for visualization. Table 1 shows the results of the prepared data in relation to garden design styles and the properties of the National Garden of Tehran.…”

Correspondence Analysis: A New Method for Analyzing Qualitative Data in Architecture

Abstract. This article aims at establishing a new application of the correspondence analysis (CA) method for analyzing qualitative data in architecture and landscape architecture. This method is primarily used in genealogy but is here, for the first time, applied to architectural studies. After introducing a qualitative method based on coding process, a practical guide for using CAQDAS (Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software) is provided. The software NVivo-8 is applied to analyze the data. CA, a multivariate statistical technique, is used to identify the underlying structure of the data and visualize the results. For the purpose of testing this method in practice, the National Garden of Tehran was selected as a case study to provide the data. The focus is on visualizing the similarities between the properties of the National Garden of Tehran and several different garden design styles. Two reliability tests were performed to verify the results, indicating that the National Garden of Tehran has many characteristics similar to those of a typical Baroque garden style. We believe that this new method may have wide application possibilities for studies on architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture.

Shared Conceptualizations and Divergent Experiences of Counseling Among African American and White Older Adults

2011

Research findings suggest that older adults prefer counseling for depression treatment; however, few older adults use counseling services. In this article we present the results of our analysis of semistructured interviews with 102 older adults to explore conceptualizations of counseling and impediments to use among African American and White older adults. We found that older adults believe counseling is beneficial; however, use was hindered in multiple ways. Older adults were skeptical about establishing a caring relationship with a professional. African American older adults did not mention social relationships to facilitate depression care, whereas White older adults described using personal relationships to navigate counseling services. African American older men were least familiar with counseling. Our findings suggest that African American and White older adults share a strong cultural model of counseling as beneficial; however, significant impediments exist and affect older adults differentially based on ethnicity.

The use of computer-assisted qualitative data analysis software (CAQDAS) has not been without controversy, with a pervasive sense of skepticism and resistance towards its adoption by many scholars. Language-based researchers in particular, such as conversation and discourse analysts, have been slow to embrace such tools for their work. In this paper we illustrate how we have used ATLAS.ti to support our own conversation and discourse analysis work, in order to demonstrate how such a tool can be leveraged to complete nine analytic tasks. Tasks and features we describe include, among others, transcribing and synchronizing transcripts with media files, engaging in unmotivated looking through creating quotations, and conducting a close, line by line analysis through writing memos. We illustrate how ATLAS.ti has allowed us to document our analytic decisions in a transparent, reflexive, rigorous and systematic way. We note, too, limitations of the software such as a lack of real-time collaboration support and challenges inherent to the analysis of video and online interactional data. Rather than taking control away from the researcher, we argue that ATLAS.ti enables the analyst to solve a range of methodological challenges, such as working with large data-sets and supporting deeper levels of analysis than is possible by hand.
