The MAXQDA 10 User Interface with the clearly-structured, easy-to-use four-window structure.

This view shows the Code System and the text wherein a text segment is being coded with the code “Öffentlichkeit”.

MAXQDA allows you to import and work with a wide variety of different file formats, such as .pdf, .doc, .docx, .rtf, and .txt.

In the new version MAXQDA 10, you can now code whole or parts of pictures.

The new MAXQDA media player allows you to play, transcribe and code multimedia files.

In the attributes window, you have the option of assigning attributes to any imported document.

You can quickly find all coded segements with the help of the text retrieval function.

With the search function, you can find specific words, phrases, or characters and then export or code them automatically.

The add-on module MAXDictio (included in MAXQDA+) makes it possible to do dictionary-based quantitative content analysis.

The memo window. Memos can be assigned to documents, text segments, codes, codings, or as free memos, which apply to the whole project.

The Memo Manager shows the titles of all memos in the project.

Title: Overlapping Clusters: Behavioral Modes at the Workplace (Hodson, 1991) Here the codes are represented by overlapping circles. The project has to do with the empirical observation of the forms of reaction of actors in a school innovation project.

This shows the results of a systematic analysis of newspaper articles. All conflicts are defined as codes in MAXQDA (e.g. climate, ecosystem destruction, etc.). The corresponding subcodes were automatically imported into the map with the appropriate colors defined in MAXQDA.

This MAXMaps model displays various elements from the research project “Environmental Communication and Local Agenda 21”. Connections and relationships between the texts (in this case, actor and expert interviews), codes, and memos are visualized.

This map shows the result of a brainstorming session concerning personal issues of the person of interest.
