Abstract

While analyzing 16+ hours of phenomenological interview data, I kept a detailed log of my use of the Atlas.ti Qualitative Analysis software and my own analysis convention using Microsoft Word. Here, I will present the details of both processes, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of both methods and technologies, including the learning curve time for each approach, and various other issues regarding the two technology platforms for the qualitative researcher.
