Experience

I work with MAXQDA since 2011 for the purposes of my PhD-project, which deals with subjective concepts on quality of life of teenagers from the perspective of sustainability. I analysed different qualitative data, mainly based on the method of qualitative content analyses: Interviews, open ended questions from surveys, research diaries from students and teachers, etc.. Now, in the final phase of my dissertation, I also use MAXQDA to combine quantitative and qualitative data based on Mixed-Methods-Approaches.

As I have been ”a pioneer” in my research team and at  the institution I am working at, using computer-software to analyze qualitative data, other people began to ask me for help: For which purposes can I use the software? What are the benefits? How simple or difficult is it to use? How  can I integrate data? Would you recommend me to use the program in my research project? So I began to advise other people and I gave some workshops for research groups within my institution and external groups as well. If you also need my help to get started using MAXQDA, please contact me.
