The impetus to assist human rights researchers in data analysis is stronger than ever; however, little is known in the literature on human rights researchers' practices in collecting, managing, and analyzing their research data. In an attempt to address this gap, we interviewed human rights researchers and conducted an online questionnaire to understand the characteristics of the data they analyze, as well as their data analysis and management practices, such as their experiences with data analysis software programs. We also explored their expectations with respect to a qualitative data analysis (QDA) software program.
The impetus to assist human rights researchers in data analysis is stronger than ever. However, little is known in the literature on human rights researchers’ practices in collecting, managing, and analyzing their research data. Addressing this gap, we interviewed 13 researchers whose research areas are related to human rights issues.Aider les chercheurs en droits de l'homme dans l'analyse des données n’a jamais connu un tel engouement. Cependant, la littérature sur les pratiques des chercheurs en droits de l'homme ne contient presque rien sur la collecte, la gestion et l'analyse de leurs données de recherche. Afin de combler cette lacune, nous avons interrogé 13 chercheurs dont les aires de recherche sont liées à des questions de droits de l'homme.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
