Qualitative Research Using R: A Systematic Approach

Abstract

This chapter discusses techniques to manage files by assigning different case attributes, creating memos or aggregating multiple text files as a single case as a way of supporting your qualitative data analysis. RQDA enables users to manage files by assigning attributes, writing memos or aggregating multiple files into a single case. These two functions enable researchers both to assign variables to each file and perform further qualitative comparative studies.
