Very helpful. You changed my fear into a fun experience. Thank you.
The best and the most practical videos on thematic analysis using NVIVO 12. Using these videos, in half an hour, I learn more than 5 days of reading other books!
Thank you , this means a lot to me !
Finally i found someone who walks me through this process of how to utilize Nvivo for findings
Next week I am posting part 2 of this, and I believe it will be very useful. Also, I replied to your email :)
This is a life-saver for my qualitative dissertation!! Thank you so much, you made it so simple and easy to understand!!
wow thank you I'm happy to hear that
Definitely!
Thank you. I appreciate your thoughtful, informative approach to what can seem a daunting and highly complex experience. Thank you Dr. Kriukow!
You are very welcome! I'm glad that you enjoyed my approach!
@@qualitativeresearcher I followed your helpful videos and uploaded and coded all my data- into NVivo 14. Twice, it disappeared and failed to save. I reloaded and coded the date a third time- it remains in the desktop app on Mac but will not save. Does anyone have a similar experience with NVivo 14 on a Mac?
I keep coming back to this video for my dissertation. Tremendous thanks to you, Dr. Kriukow!
Wow! Thanks! And I'm really glad that you find this content so useful (don't forget to watch the other ones also entitled how codes become themes)
@@qualitativeresearcher I just defended my dissertation and PASSED. APPRECIATE this video (and subsequent video) - they were lifesavers!
Quite instructive to see and hear the thought processes in play when undertaking a thematic analysis using NVivo. Thank you
thank you, I have been struggling and the voice from NVivo spoke so fast, and had such a high pitch I don't know which was worst. Your presentation is excellent, you explain it and work at the pace a rookie like me can learn from you- Danka, Mercie, gracias
love this feedback, thank you!
Am happy to have come across your video Dr Kriukow, you have been very helpful in my qualitative thesis. Detailed, clear and simple explanations there🙏
Thank you!
Ok noobs, important information. You need to re-watch this video multiple times during your TA. This video is gold.
Your videos have been helping me a lot through my dissertation. Thank you Dr.!
You are so welcome!
This is such an awesome and helpful video for moving form codes to themes in NVivo. Thank you so much for making it.
You're very welcome!
This information is so helpful to me as I am in the analysis phase of dissertation. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! Hopefully you will find some other videos helpful too (especially the other 2 in the series "how codes become themes")
Timely required video. Thank you very much
Yes yes, the codes and themes are very exciting, but, I think we are all overlooking how cool the 'trust the data' hoodie is!! I must have one!
lol, thank you for noticing :) I'm flattered because this is my little brand ;) You can find it here, there are also t-shirts, bags, phone cases etc trust-the-data.creator-spring.com
This was so helpful! Thanks for helping out an overwhelmed student
I'm so glad! Hope things are a bit better now
i was looking for hours for a way to merge the sub codes with the "mother code"... i did not realize the magical button "aggregate with children" is what it i need in my life :'D . you sir are a legend thanks !!!!!!
lol, I'm happy that the video helped. Don't forget to check my whole course on NVivo. It is not expensive, and I'm sure there's plenty you could learn from it!
the use of folders and merging nodes was really helpful - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much Dr. Kriukow. Very clear explanation.
You are welcome!
Helped me overcome my data analysis block, great explanations. Have purchased the nVivo course on Udemy now.
Second!!!
Fantastic Dr. Kriukow, I am using Braun & Clarke 6 stage TA.....your videos are a great help.
Glad to help! And remember not to over-rely on their framework, as it may make you too stressed to progress through the stages. Have your own focus and goal in mind, and once you get there it is relatively easy to fit what you did into their template. Not a very academic advice, but a practical one that will make it easier for you!
Thank you so much for this video. You answered several questions I had, plus a few I should have had. I appreciate this.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you soo much this is a lifesaver, wish I had seen it earlier
absolutely, a life-saver.
Thank you so much for explaining step by step
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much for this video. You really helped me with my qualitative phase data analysis for my mixed methods research! crystal clear now...
You're very welcome, and glad it was helpful!
Great! simple and direct! Thanks Prof.
Thank you!
Extremely helpful you've saved my dissertation!! Thank you so so much :)
This is great! I really like the way you explain, and your pronunciation (english) is easy to understand to me. Thank you!
Thank you, I'm really glad that you are enjoying this content. And thank you for the kind feedback regarding my pronunciation, this also means a lot to me!
Very well explained. You made it so easy to understand!
Thank you!
Thank God I found you. Thank you so so soooo much.

@@qualitativeresearcher Oh I am already all over them! I'm finishing up some thematic content analysis for my Masters dissertation due in two weeks and I needed to finesse it (Have been using NVivo professionally for a while, but it's slightly different in a research context). Brilliant videos. Currently on part 2. Thanks again you are a fantastic presenter and educator.

I want to know more about Nvivo coding for my dissertation. I am not familiar with Nvivo. Thanks for this video.
I have a 3 part series that I just published on this channel, it may be helpful. I also have a self-study course about NVivo, as well as do private tutorials, just check my website
Great video, thanks for sharing
Thanks!
great content! Thank you for this video! helped me a lot :)
Glad to hear that!
If this video could be split into chapters where you explain specific parts this video would be easier to watch... Thanks for uploading though.
Very Helpful!
Thanks
my headd is aching about my research and Im first time doing qualitative
you can do it!
Thanks... can include citation in nvivo..... how can conect file or code with citation that should include in last part in theses
thanks
You're welcome!
This was a very informative video.
Thank you! Posting part 2 this week
Thank you so much!
Thanks 🌹
You're welcome 😊
Very good tips and techniques. Thank you Dr. I have subscribed to your channel, fyi.
Excellent!
great video. Thanks!!
Thank you!
How can I import the manually generated codes into the software to identify themes and verify if they align with my manual analysis?
there is no option to do this, you would have to create new codes, based on your manually created codes, and then code the data with them in NVivo
is there any way we can download an invivo for free?
Can this be any simpler ?
how did you cut and paste all the codes? I can't seem to do this? Thanks
just select the codes, right click and copy/cut. Then go to the target location and paste. On the MAC version, there is no cut option, so you need to copy and paste and then go and delete the original
Hi Dr,
How do i reduce my many codes without losing the content of the 4 transcripts I have. I have tasked to write a report from my themes, where do I go from here?
I have several videos about this process Richard. You reduce the codes by combining them into meaningful themes, as well as organizing them into groups, sometimes merging, etc.
Hola Dr Kriukow - I just came across this video... trying to get my head into Nvivo... this is probably a really basic question but I still don't get where the code sentences come from? Are they just sentences you have collected from the data? I am working on interviews at the moment that had structured questions... so should I just pull out sentences randomly that stand out etc? Should I look for similarities at this point? Sorry if my questions are obvious. Faval
Thank you for your question. You need to have your whole interview transcript/questionnaire, and import it to Nvivo. Then, you read it, and code the sentences in it. Not necessarily each sentence - sometimes it may be so, but sometimes you may code a whole chunk, a couple of sentences, etc - you just want to make sure to cover most topics they discuss with your codes. I do have several videos about the basics of coding, and in some of them I talk about what to code, so you may find those useful
Thank you for this intersting video🤩. Please i have a question : when you create codes before creating categories and thems, the text is only existing in codes , there is 0 sources and references in categories and thems. So it would not impact the visualization of results ? We don't have to encode the same text in codes and categories and thems ?
Thank you so much
Not sure I follow, but if you mean the 0 references and files in the main themes that I create, I do show at the end of the video how to "aggregate coding" so that they do not say 0
Dear Dr. Kriukow, I am struggling a lot understanding the analysis process in generell between thematic and content analysis. Last time I was asked about the meaning of thematic analysis and just explained that it's all about seeing which kind of themes emerged from the data and you just analyze them. This person asked me if I'm sure that I'm not talking about the coding process? This is actually my problem. Looking for themes in generell sounds too for me like coding. Are there any videos, where I could see the analysis process of both thematic and content analysis? Still thank your for your great videos. :-)
Content analysis is similar to thematic analysis, and arguably I would even say includes thematic analysis to some extent, but the difference is in the output, as the aim is to specifically focus on frequency of certain "content" that we are looking for (e.g. certain expression, or more general theme). Very often, but not always, content analysis is also based on deduction, and the researcher is looking for specific things in the data. Regarding the other question, thematic analysis is really the continuation of coding, it starts with coding and then involves working on these codes, merging them, reorganizing, etc. to create broader themes.
hi Dr, i am more than a beginner and need to analyse my data can you assist?
yes, please check my website to read about all services that I offer
We are very jealous of your sweatshirt. Where can we buy some?
You can buy it here in my "trust the data" store :) You can also buy things like coffee mugs, phone cases, etc. trust-the-data.creator-spring.com/
Hi Dr Kriukow. Are you selling the Nvivo app?
No, I can't sell it , it is being sold by their own company
Hello Doctor and thanks for the informative video. Do you do private qualitative data analysis?
you can find information about all services that I offer on my website www.drkriukow.com
I do offer one to one sessions
I wish you used a zoom feature to see your content. :( things would have been so much easier.
Thank you for this comment. I don't think I know how to do this, BUT I will learn this - I promise!
What software do you use for the screen recording and sharing? For your line of work, I would strongly recommend Camtasia. Please take a look. Also, how can we collaborate Dr. K?
@@RaihanJamil I heard of camtasia but never given it a try. I use OBS for screen capturing. Regarding the collaboration, I don't know you tell me :)
I believe OBS also has a zoom feature - similar to how you increase and decrease the size of your face window.
Please drop me a line at raihan.jamil@gmail.com and we can discuss collaboration if you are interested sir. Thank you!
I am using Ms word for coding as my transcripts. Is there any way to import the word file to NVIVO so that I can use that for further analysis ?
yes, you can import word files to nvivo
Thanks for your videos. Question: I have 3 different research questions in my study. In my case, would you suggest creating a separate folder under Nodes for each of my RQs and then move the codes that apply to that RQ into that corresponding folder? Then within each folder, I can start grouping into categories, deleting/merging redundant codes?
Hi Mark, no I usually suggest keeping all of this in one folder. this is because more often than not, you will use various themes/sub-themes to jointly answer and discuss your research questions. it is not easy, usually not possible and, to be honest, not desirable, to be keeping themes/codes that are strictly linked to 1 RQ and not the other. For a variety of reasons this may be problematic. Having said this, I would not consider what you are suggesting a sin that should be avoided at all costs, and I think it is still possible to analyze your data and discuss the results properly this way, but based on my experience I just know this is not the ideal way in which I would like to approach this
@@qualitativeresearcher Thank you for replying so quickly, Dr Kriukow!
Does a code need to be recurrent in more than one reference to be labeled as a code? or it can be a code even when mentioned once?
thanks Dr. Kriukow
Even when it is mentioned once, it needs to be coded. Later, when you decide what to keep in your thematic framework, whilst most of the sub themes will be most likely to have been mentioned more than once, occasionally I do have some that were only mentioned once (but I believe it is important to report them)
Dr. Kriukow Do have a video showing the newest NVIVO windows interface? In particular in vivo coding where the category will emerge. The left side section of the NVIVO has different terms - no nodes? May thanks. Jim
I don't but the update you are talking about has the exact same functions, only the design has changed slightly. If there are no "nodes" then there are "codes", one of the 2 as QSR has been using these 2 interchangeably
@@qualitativeresearcher Thank you for your quick reply. I have been trying to extract text from interviews and placing directly in the workspace. I drag and drop text, in vivo coding (via the right-click) into the workspace. Once I have all my "codes" I can not seem to create categories? When I drag and drop one individual code to combine it with another I do not see a way to names the category? I am sure it is a simple thing and I am just missing it...
@@jimstringfield2596 Hi Jim, I am not sure what you mean by "categories" as there is no such option in NVivo. If you mean higher and lower level codes or, in NVivo terms, Parent and Child codes respectively, if you cut a code and then paste it onto another code, it becomes the latter's child code. You can also drag and drop it there. Unless you are using the MAC version which is a bit different
@@qualitativeresearcher Perhaps I am working from a false assumption? I thought the basic unit of analysis is a code, these codes can be grouped into categories, and the categories will lead to themes? Those very broad ideas that answer the research questions? Thanks
@@jimstringfield2596 this is just one of possible classifications. Also, it is problematic to be using these terms in the context of NVivo, because as I said, for NVivo there is technically no difference between the above. It is also hard to decide when a "code", for example, would become an analytic category or let alone a theme. Thus, as I explain in one of my videos, for the purpose of clarity I usually stick to codes, and only call them themes once they are the "final" version of these codes :)
Dr. Kriukow incase of mixed methods do we develop themes after having completed all phases of qual and quant or can we develop themes after 1 phase and then build on it after phase 2? Some codes will coincide and some will be new in the next phase.
depends on which design you follow. I do have some videos on Mixed methods research. In exploratory designs, for example, you analyze your qual data first, and develop themes, because based on this analysis you will develop the quantitative questionnaire
@@qualitativeresearcher My current research initiated with a quant phase followed by the qual phase. The quant phase had a lot of open end responses which I have already coded. However before working on the themes, I was thinking if I should first finish coding the Qual phase too and then generate themes because many codes I think are similar but there are also new codes. My research is mainly led by the qual data and so i was thinking I should finish coding this data and then work on themes all together.
Do you suggest that we start merging the codes even before coding of some more interviews is pending?
there is no rule for that and will depend on what you decide needs to be done and what is convenient to you. Usually I do prefer to organize the codes a bit before proceeding to code the remaining transcripts, but sometimes I code everything first and only then start to organize the coding framework
@@qualitativeresearcher Love qual research for the fact that it provides flexibility with everything we do
Hi, I was watching your video, very helpful, but I was wondering is this the same step as axial coding? Or is that a different step? Hopefully you can help me! :)
Yes, this can very well fit into the category of axial coding, or focused coding. The point is to stay focused on the goal, on the research questions and the aims of the study, and later you can fit these steps into an existing framework (such as the one you mentioned) when you are expected to describe these steps
@@qualitativeresearcher Thank you so much!
Is nvivo 12 free?
no it is not, unfortunately. Although many universities provide free license to their students and staff. If you need it for personal use, it is ridiculously expensive, but there are some cheaper alternatives, such as MAXQDA, Atlas.ti or Quirkos
Hi there, I want to suggest that you are succinct in your explanations. You use too many words to pass a point but nonetheless your videos are helpful just try to use less words.
Thanks for the tip. I do tend to talk a lot. On the other hand, the topics I explain in 20 minutes take the universities a whole course to explain, so I would still say I can convey information pretty well ;)
This is a great resource. However, to me, it felt like the intricate details of your specific project were unnecessary and boring. This may lead to losing track of the key learning goal. Please try to be more specific and talk more about the overall process in the beginning. Try to keep the video short for easy learning.
thank you for the feedback, I do find any comments useful. I know I tend to talk too much in general, it is true, but in this case I did feel that the details of the project were crucial in order to later understand my reasoning behind the 2 different approaches to creating a thematic framework
Sorry, I thought thsi comment was under PART II of this. There are no 2 frameworks in this video :) Thanks for the feedback anyway, and for PART II see the link in the description
Excellent Video. But explanations (like on codes) just kept going for far too long.
thank you for the feedback anyway! I do have a tendency to talk a lot :)
Tooooo wordy, very little substance.
Try not to talk a lot. Stay on focus
