The UNC Center for Health Equity Research’s Health Equity Research Intensive (HERI) brings together diverse stakeholders invested in health equity to learn how to develop, implement and evaluate more inclusive and impactful health equity research projects. HERI provides sessions centered on partnership and engagement with innovative approaches and methods. HERI's primary goal is to help participants understand their role in addressing important questions related to health disparities and health equity. Participating in HERI will equip attendees to effectively center equity in their research.

Introduction to ATLAS.ti Part 1

This short course will demonstrate the capabilities of the PC version of ATLAS.ti (version 23), a qualitative analysis software program for coding and interpreting qualitative data. ATLAS.ti also provides numerous options for attaching memos and comments to text segments, documents, and codes. We will demonstrate how to import textual data, create and apply codes, write memos, create diagrams, and examine the hierarchical and relational connections among codes. We will also discuss special analysis features, such as the code co-occurrence matrix, the codes-variables table, and Sankey diagrams.
