My interviews are semi-structured interviews. The interview guide is divided into the six dimensions of the health care model I am currently studying. Can I use these dimensions as my theory based codebook, or how do I create this codebook? Thanks
One option would be to use Nigel King's version of "template analysis." I have attached two files on this method.
Coming from a Grounded Theory approach we would use our coding process to populate a codebook. Starting with line-by-line coding, then focus coding, then super-categories, and finally themes. Throughout we would be memo writing. Together these offer a corpus of coding in a very structured and methodical way. Reading the following might help:
