Question description
Qualitative data analysis is both art and
science. That is because it involves assigning values to descriptions,
statements, and observed behaviors. If you had a collection of letters—for
example, love letters—you could qualitatively analyze these letters and attempt
to determine the most common topics discussed within them, typical hopes and
fears the authors have, and perhaps even make inferences about the cultural
norms regarding courtship and love of the culture from which the letters came.
As you might imagine, this would necessitate a great deal of interpretation on
your part. You would need to analyze the letters for meaning, assign values to
symbolic content, and seek to understand the thoughts, feelings, and
experiences of the letters’ authors within their given setting. Criminal
justice researchers conduct a similar process—called coding—when they analyze
qualitative research data from field research, surveys, or other qualitative
methods.
An explanation of why coding is important in qualitative analysis. Then explain the differences among open, axial,
and selective coding. Finally, provide examples
of data for which each type of coding might be appropriate and explain why. Be
specific and support your responses with references.
