Qualitative data analysis (QDA) is the range of processes and procedures whereby raw data are converted into some form of explanation, understanding, or interpretation of the people and situations being investigated. QDA is usually based on an interpretative philosophy to give meaning to collected data. As with all data, analysis and interpretation are required to bring order and understanding to it. After all, a set of numbers or lists of observations are useless without an explanation of why they are important. This requires creativity, discipline, and a systematic approach-there is no single or best way. The best process for a given research situation will depend on the questions that need to be answered and the needs of those who will use the information.
For this Application Assignment, you interpret the outputs of qualitative analyses by examining which variables are significant and what you can conclude from the outputs.
