Analysis Process

To bring order to the conversation and survey responses, the IGT Data Analysis Team used an analytical approach based on grounded theory and a qualitative data analysis software system called MaxQDA. Through 6 - 8 rounds of preliminary coding, the three members of the analysis team agreed that a set of 98 codes worked well in capturing the meaning of statements coming from community conversations and online surveys. These codes were derived directly from extensive reading of responses by the three members of the analysis team and included some joint coding and checking of the same material. Interrater reliability was tested and found to be satisfactory.

These 98 codes are listed here.

All of the statements made by participants were coded using these codes. Each statement could receive more than one code depending on the complexity of the content. A statement was given a code if it had something to say about the code. Some statements received one code while others received as many as 10 codes. All statements also received a code indicating whether it was something the participant Liked, or wanted to Change or was an answer to Why it was important.

A document showing frequencies that each of the 98 codes was used is here.

After a large portion of the conversations and surveys were coded, preliminary summary statements were constructed to begin the process of reducing the coded data to value oriented concepts.

The first of these summary statement efforts produced this document with 78 summary statements. A slightly reduced version of this effort produced this document with 64 summary statements.

Another approach to reducing the survey data was taken at the same time. A classical content analysis, involving cluster and factor analysis, was used to produce this document.

Several rounds if IGT review and systhesis produced this draft.
