my experience is that qualitative data analysis software such as nudist can cause you to become too narrow in your analysis. I mainly use nudist as a file/data management tool. It is very useful for doing wordsearches that allow cross referencing and also for integrating other files and documents into your work - however - nothing can do the analysis for you. denise ----- Original Message ----- From: <m.whitty@Queens-Belfast.AC.UK> To: <air-l@aoir.org> Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 2:53 PM Subject: Re: [Air-l] qualitative data analysis software?

I would recommend NVivo -- it is the next one of from Nudist -- but much better. Good for both grounded approach as well as content analysis.
