WordStat can now be called from various retrieval tables to analyze the extracted text segments.Ī new CASES | APPEND FROM A DATA FILE command now allows one to append new cases stored in an external data file. The new VARIABLES | STATISTICS command allows one to quickly obtain the frequency and cross-frequency distribution of numerical, categorical, date and short string variables. FREQUENCY AND CROSSTAB OF NUMERICAL & CATEGORICAL DATA The CODING BY VARIABLE command can now examine the relationship between codes assigned to text segments and the combined values of two variables (for example: Gender x Age).Ĥ. Rows and columns can be moved freely or deleted, and one can adjust the color of each cell as well as the fonts used. Many features of the chart can be customized to highlight specific findings. This type of chart allows one to quickly identify high and low frequency cells and is thus especially useful for presentation purposes. The bubble chart is a graphic representation of crosstab tables where relative frequencies are represented by circles of different diameters. It allows one to quickly show the relationship of parts to the whole or to emphasize the sum of several codes. Two new charts have been added to display the relationship between codings and variables: The stacked bar chart allows one to display relative or absolute frequency of codings by stacking them for each class of the categorical or numerical variable. The VIRTUAL GROUPING function will affect the following features of QDA Miner: The VIRTUAL GROUPING function allows one to temporarily group all codes in a category and instruct QDA Miner to compute frequencies and obtain statistics at the category level. By default, categories cannot be assigned to text segments and frequency statistics can only be compute on codes, not on their categories. Codebook categories have been used mainly to organize codes in a hierarchical way.
