Hi! Thank you for this informative video! I'd like to ask how do you analyze open-ended survey questions and present its results or data in a qualitative method, since survey is mostly used in a quantitative research. Thanks again!

[@Quirkos]

Briefly, I think open ended survey questions are best analysed by major theme (after reading across all responses) and then using answers for other (discrete or quant) questions to compare differences by subset (eg age or location)

[@beamarietonicasuyon3552]

@@Quirkos oh thank you for responding! Will it be classified as mixed method? Since it'll make use of bars or graphs if it were to compare by subsets.

[@Quirkos]

If you are using quantitative metrics (like graphs and stats) then it might be mixed method (or purely quantitative depending on approach). But you can keep it qualitative by reading and looking for differences in what people say between the different groups, not just how many say something
