Adapting CAQDAS in a qualitative research study
Methodology – evolving alongside the study
P.1 - Position: insider
P2 - Lens: social constructionism
P3 - Design: a mixture of ethnography, participatory
observation and grounded theory
P4 – Evidence: interview transcripts, field notes;
visual artefacts; documents
P4+ - CAQDAS adaptation: Led by grounded theory
in the process of analysis in ATLAS.ti 5
P5 – Report: A curriculum framework of a discipline

Qualitative research as process (Denzin & Lincoln, 2000; 2005)
Phase 1: The researcher as multicultural subjects [Researchers’ position]
Phase 2: Theoretical paradigms and perspectives [Researchers’ lens]
Phase 3: Research strategies (her/his design)
Phase 4: Methods of collection and analysis [Researchers’ evidences]
[Phase 4+: CAQDAS in processes of analysis i.e. CAQDAS adaptation]
Phase 5: The art, practices, and politics of interpretation and presentation [Researchers’ reporting]

Weitzman (2000) suggested 6 key considerations:
What kind of computer user am I?
Am I choosing for one project or for the next few years?
What kind of project(s) and database(s) will I be working on?
What kinds of analyses am I planning to do?
How important is it to you to maintain a sense of “closeness” to your data?
What are your financial constraints when buying software and the hardware it needs to run on?

Ezzy’s (2002) notion of making choice
of CAQDAS:
‘[q]ualitative data analysis cannot be done by a
computer. CAQDA software only facilitates the
analysis’ (p.111).
