Using QDAcity
Can I import and export projects from and to other QDA tools?
Yes. If you started your project using a different QDA tool that supports the QDPX standard you can import this data (text, PDFs, the code book and codings) from there into QDAcity and continue your work seamlessly. If you want to export data from QDAcity, you can do this as well using the same data format. This significantly reduces your risk of relying on one specific tool. Since not all of the features of QDAcity are supported by the QDPX standard some data may not be included in the export.
Does QDAcity have integrated analysis metrics?
Yes. To support your qualitative analysis we have integrated a number of metrics that help you understand your data and your coding process. You have access to coding statistics such as co-location of codes and overlap and coding frequencies. To measure similarity between different coders we have a number of intercoder agreement metrics, like Krippendorff's Alpha, Fleiss' Kappa and F-Measure. With QDAcity you can also operationalize saturation with a tangible and transparent measurement.
Can I transcribe my interviews with QDAcity?
Yes, we offer automatic transcription and a tool to proofread and correct the output. We support the following languages: Chinese, Mandarin (Simplified, China), English (India), English (Singapore), English (United Kingdom), English (United States), French (France), German (Germany), Italian (Italy), Japanese (Japan), Portuguese (Brazil), Russian (Russia), Spanish (Spain), Swahili, and Swahili (Kenya).
