H. 2.4: Code Co-Occurence Model

This model displays the data segments with overlapping codes. Select the Code Co-Occurence Model from the MAXMap menu under New > New Model and drag the preferred codes onto the map. After each dragged in code you will be asked if you want to add another code. After the second code has been inserted, click No when asked if you want to add another code. Now you will see a window where you can choose between several options to configure the model.

Code co-occurence Model

You have the option of only evaluating those codes that you have activated in the Code System, including subcodes, setting the minimum number of intersections, and defining the required weight of codes to be included. Click OK to continue.

Those codes connected to each other with a line overlap at some point in a document. This is a very simple example where the code ‘Emotions’ does not overlap with any of the other codes. In bigger projects, the results will be of a greater complexity.
