“…Surveys, originally collected in Excel, were inputted into QDA Miner [35] -qualitative data analysis software -to enable classical constant comparison analysis [36], [37]. QDA Miner has been used for qualitative analyses both in disaster studies and healthcare [38]- [40] and it allows for categorization and codification of data into thematic units which in our study occurred a posteriori (identification and categorization of codes followed data-driven analysis and included assessing frequency, salience, distribution, and commonality among others). Further, the software offers functionality to split codes, rename codes, merge codes, subcategorize codes, all of which are effective means for ensuring consistency and integrity when managing a robust corpus of qualitative data.…”
