Qualitative Coding Boot Camp: An Intensive Training and Overview for Clinicians, Educators, and Administrators.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Qualitative coding is a tool for analyzing data involving strings of meaningful words. While many schools and universities have staff who can assist faculty with quantitative data analysis, qualitative data analysis is interpretive and requires both content-specific knowledge and research methodology tools. In this qualitative coding boot camp, we introduce clinician-educators, staff, and administrators to a general overview of qualitative coding and analysis.

Methods

We designed and implemented an in-person training to help researchers who had limited exposure to qualitative research gain a general orientation to it. We provided an overview of qualitative data collection and qualitative coding and developed focused research questions related to sample interview
