Imagine Greater Tucson - List of 98 Codes |
These codes were developed by the IGT analysis team as part of using a qualitative data analysis software system called MaxQDA. Through 6 - 8 rounds of preliminary coding, the three members of the analysis team agreed that these codes worked well in capturing the meaning of statements coming from community conversations and online surveys. Several label changes were made toward the end of December 2010 and the final two codes were added at that time. |
