HyperRESEARCH

HyperRESEARCH is a computer program that can assist researchers with the qualitative analysis of their data. It supports the use of a range of types of data, text, video, audio, and images, which can be coded. The coding frame or coding book can be developed and modified, and if required, given a hierarchical structure. Data at each code can be retrieved. A key function in the program is the ability to test and develop complex hypotheses about the data set by using the case-based structure of the project and its coding. This entry reviews the history of the software application, delves into the software’s functionality with regard to cases and sources, coding, and filtering and hypothesis testing and concludes by highlighting additional functions and features ...
