*The N-C-T Model


*The three components of theN-C-T model

A: Noticing When reading / looking through the data material

B: Collecting see puzzle analogy

C: Thinking Searching for patterns and relations in the data

How do the piezes of the puzzle fit?

Answering research questions and making further discoveries about the phenomenon


*Playing the puzzle


* Most people lay out the frame first. This means for computer-assisted QDA:

* Well thought about data file names

* Setting up the project (one folder, possible sub folders containing all data)

* Creating document families

* Possibly the creation of first memos

*Playing the puzzle


*Wir beginnen mit der Kodierarbeit und legen die Dinge zusammen die ähnlich sind oder zu einem Thema gehören

*Puzzlespiel


* Building categories and their sub categories (properties, dimesions or whatever name you want to give them)

*Playing the puzzle


*What has a WASJIGG Puzzle in common with qualitative data analysis?

*Playing the puzzle


* The NCT process – simplified


*To remind you of the model:


*The NCT process can be:

iterative but is rekursive most of the time or can be holistic


* Reality often looks like this:


*How do I manage to finish my analysis and write me research report?

if you continue to apply the NCT model also during the conceptual phase of your anaylsis

i.e. think about questions to ask, run queries and write up research question memos

create network views as soon as you begin to see how things relate


*The entire process of computer-assisted NCT analysis
