{"product_id":"qualitative-analysis-using-atlasti-by-nicholas-h-woolf-9781138743632","title":"Qualitative Analysis Using ATLAS.ti","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftware is cut-and-dried – every button you press has a predictable effect – but qualitative analysis is open-ended and unfolds in unpredictable ways. This contradiction is best resolved by separating analytic strategies – \u003ci\u003ewhat you plan to do\u003c\/i\u003e – from software tactics – \u003ci\u003ehow you plan to do it\u003c\/i\u003e. Expert \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e users have unconsciously learned to do this. The \u003ci\u003eFive-Level QDA®\u003c\/i\u003e method unpacks the process so that you can learn it consciously and efficiently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first part of the book explains how the contradiction between analytic strategies and software tactics is reconciled by \"translating\" between them. The second part provides both an in-depth description of how \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e works and comprehensive instruction in the five steps of \"translation\". These steps are illustrated with examples from a variety of research projects. The third part contains real-world qualitative research projects from a variety of disciplines, methodologies, and kinds of qualitative analysis, all illustrated in \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e using the \u003ci\u003eFive-Level QDA\u003c\/i\u003e method. The book is accompanied by three sets of video demonstrations on the Companion Website. While this book uses screenshots from the current \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e Version 8, it is still fully applicable to users of older versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book and accompanying videos illustrate the Windows version of \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e. As there are some differences in screen and interface design between the Mac and Windows versions, please watch the video 'The \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e Mac Interface' in the Component Orientation series of videos (available September 2017).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eFive-Level QDA\u003c\/i\u003e method is based on the authors’ combined 40 years of experience teaching \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e and other software packages used as platforms for conducting qualitative analysis. After many years observing their students’ challenges, they developed the \u003ci\u003eFive-Level QDA\u003c\/i\u003e method to describe the process that long-time \u003ci\u003eATLAS.ti\u003c\/i\u003e experts unconsciously adopt. The \u003ci\u003eFive-Level QDA\u003c\/i\u003e method is independent of software program or methodology, and the principles apply to any type of qualitative project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlease see the following URL to access the accompanying materials for this book: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.qdaservices.co.uk\/five-level-qda\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.qdaservices.co.uk\/five-level-qda\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607477240044,"sku":"9781138743632","price":341.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781138743632-qualitative-analysis-using-atlas-ti.jpg?v=1778166691","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/qualitative-analysis-using-atlasti-by-nicholas-h-woolf-9781138743632","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
