Data Analysis in Qualitative
Research
- Is defined as the process of systematically
searching and arranging the interview
transcripts, manuscripts, observation
notes, or other non-textual materials that
researcher accumulates to increase the
understanding of the phenomenon.

- Analyzing qualitative data entails
reading a large amount of
transcripts looking for
similarities of differences,
subsequently categorizing and
eventually finding and
developing themes.

- Conventionally, researchers ‘cut


and paste’ and use colored pens
to categorize data.

CODING
• Coding or categorizing the data is the most important stage
in the qualitative data analysis process. Coding and data
analysis are not synonymous, though coding is a crucial
aspect of the qualitative data analysis process.

• Coding merely involves subdividing the huge amount of raw


information or data, and subsequently assigning them into
categories and them coming up with a core category or
theme.

• In simple terms, codes are tags or labels for allocating


identified themes of topics from the data compiled in the
study. 2
CODING
• Traditionally, coding was done manually, with the use of colored
pens to label, categorize data , and subsequently cutting and sorting
the data.

• Coding is done repeatedly until major patterns arise. You can


visualize coding by thinking of an essay written on piece of paper
with you cutting sentences with the scissor and filing them under a
folder with a certain classification. Coding has three (3) types, in
which succeeding types are more centrally organized than the
preceding types (Babbie 2016, 388-391).

THE CODING PROCESS

1. Open Coding
- the first step at coding in which qualitative data are closely
examined, compared with one another, and then classified into
discrete ideas. ‘Unemployment’, ‘missed payments’, and
‘educational struggles’ are examples of open coding. This is done
for every response or data that you process. If you find similar
ideas from other responses, you will file them under the same
code.

THE CODING PROCESS

2. Axial Coding
- this is done by regrouping the results of open
coding and finding a core concept among the codes.
For example, codes such as ‘TV network closure’,
‘Tourism industry, and ‘Factories’ can be classified
under the axial code of unemployment by company
closure.

THE CODING PROCESS
2. Selective Coding
– this is done to identify the single concept to which all
other codes relate to. Once that you have reviewed all of
the data and identified all of the concepts, you will see a
central concept that ties it all. For example, if most of the
responses point out that their families’ finances were
severely impacted due to the unemployment of the bread
winner or the provider of the household, we can point out
unemployment as the selective code.

2
CONCEPTS OPEN CODING You breaks data into
discrete parts and
create a codes to
label them.

CATEGORIES AXIAL CODING You begin to draw


connections between
codes.

SELECTIVE
THEMES
CODING You connect all your
categories together around
one core category.
