Overall and individual results
Pat Bazeley replied to cap's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
To get an overview of each of your themes as well as being able to see if they are a source of satisfaction or dissatisfaction, make the two satisfaction nodes children in a separate tree, and organise your 'themes' in other trees (preferably according to the kinds of things that are raised, e.g. separating interpersonal issues from infrastructure issues). If you then code each passage for the issue raised and also for whether it was seen as satisfactory or not (i.e., at least two codes), then you can run a matrix to see what the pattern of responses is. To add in additional factors like your- 2 replies

That would be even better if you could have the node tree open at different places on each side! Pat

Sequential coding question
Pat Bazeley replied to jpetrozzino's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
No. If a code is deleted the order would remain the same, but not if a new one is inserted. Most people don't use a numbering system for nodes. As a default, NVivo sorts them alphabetically, but there is a custom sort button on the toolbars (looks like 3 dots arranged vertically) and if you click on it you can then move nodes up or down. Next time you open, it will appear alpha order, but a single click on the icon will revert it to your custom order. Pat -
Cohen's Kappa-help needed, NVivo 8.0
Pat Bazeley replied to trrr's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
Hi Terry, If the sources are identical, then they should have merged into a single source. Perhaps you gave them different names to reflect who coded, or perhaps each person couldn't resist the temptation to edit the source in some way? For the coding comparison query, they need to be a single source - NVivo can detect who did what coding on it, and show the level of agreement both with Kappa and with coding stripes for each coder (double click on a line in the coding query results).

Selecting Multiple Text
Pat Bazeley replied to sherretb's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
No. The fastest way to add the same code to further passages of text is, probably, to highlight the next passage and click on the tick next to the recently used node slot in the coding toolbar (the last used node will be showing). Pat -
Here's a couple of other possibilities: a. In version 8 you can display attribute values as coding stripes. b. Copy the saved matrix to the trees area, then select all the nodes at the third level down (= cells) and export them (with hierarchical names) in one go. Create a Word document and insert all the exported files at once. Then run a Replace which finds 'Name' and replaces it with Name in a heading style (use the More button in the Replace dialogue), then use the outline view to reorder the headings (with their associated text) to what you want. c. Copy and paste the matrix table into

code the text into the case
Pat Bazeley replied to abalhatm's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
Options for coding to cases in NV7 or NV8 Code individual sources as cases on import. (Tidy up your document names before importing!) Or, after importing your sources: If your Cases are represented by single sources: Select the sources representing Cases in the List View, right-click, and choose Create As > Create Cases. (This will make a case node for each source.) If your Cases involve multiple whole documents: Select the sources representing a single Case in the List View, right-click, and choose Code Sources > At New Node. Select Cases as the location, and then name the new -
expanding from a coded segment
Pat Bazeley replied to mbohlig's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
The best solution to seeing who says something you've coded is to turn on the coding density bar - because the speaker has been made into a case, the case node will be listed there. Pat -
Not if you want to be able to auto code them - you need some form of heading in there. What you might do is reduce the headings to something much smaller (and a standard size, e.g. Q1 etc) rather than having a whole question there. You might also want to split up your source document into smaller sections (it won't cause any problem to do so as long as you don't split in the middle of a case) as NVivo can become very slow when coding a very long document (it has to count characters to reference the location of the coded text at the node).

Queries versus Sets
Pat Bazeley replied to howeyb's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
Hi Betty, Users are one of the few categories of project item that you can't choose from when setting up rows or columns in a matrix (though you can limit the query to one user). You could either use codes across whole patient cases for hard and easy, or you might prefer,if they are included sequentially within a transcript (i.e. they are not all mixed up), to insert a unique heading for each into the transcripts and then use those headings to create patient cases by auto coding them (check the help files under auto code). The problem with that is likely to be that, if you have different peo -
Coding Comparison Query

HI Bruce, If the second person sets up a project they can import your project without coding (under File > Import Project - check the options out. Pat -
Cases, Attributes, and Nodes
Pat Bazeley replied to keith.starcher's topic in NVivo 12 for Windows and Older Versions
Hi Keith, You will probably find the book I've written on 'Qualitative data analysis with NVivo' useful (Sage 2007). It was written when NVivo 7 came out, so some of the instructions have changed but the general tenor of the explanations about what you might do using the software, and why you are doing it (with reference mainly to qual research in general, but also occasionally with reference to specific methodological approaches). (Updates to the instructions for version 8 are available on my website.) Also on my website, on the mixed methods resources page, you will find references to (and -
There's no way a text query for compliance would find material at the node if it didn't include the word. What you might be seeing is context around the finds you specified - NVivo shows 5 words either side, in a lighter grey text, by default, as context for your finds. The other thing to watch, when you save your finds using the options, is what context has been specified for saving. There is a way that you can exclude a node from a text query which is useful if you want to check the thoroughness of your coding: Use a compound query, putting the text query criteria into the first sub-query s
