Text Analysis Overview - Welcome. CAQDAS (New Media Methods @ Loughborough) Untitled Document. Niederländische Philologie FU Berlin. TextSTAT is a simple programme for the analysis of texts.
It reads plain text files (in different encodings) and HTML files (directly from the internet) and it produces word frequency lists and concordances from these files. This version includes a web-spider which reads as many pages as you want from a particular website and puts them in a TextSTAT-corpus. The new news-reader, too, puts news messages in a TextSTAT-readable corpus file. TextSTAT reads MS Word and OpenOffice files. No conversion needed, just add the files to your corpus... Documentation: For a first introduction to TextSTAT, please refer to the Quickstart Guide to text analysis with TextSTAT from the 'Humanities Resource Centre' at Princeton University. There is also a nice video tutorial by Zarah Weiß, available via YouTube. NEW: TextSTAT 3 (beta) There are some drastical changes in this new version of TextSTAT, most of them internal. TextSTAT now works with Python 2 (>= 2.7) and - even better - with Python 3 (>= 3.4).

Researchers can design a series of data entry templates tailored to their questionnaire. These questionnaires are usually administered during face-to-face interviews with a sample of respondents. A response to a question may be entered into EZ-Text either as a verbatim transcript (e.g., from a tape recording), or a summary generated from the interviewer's notes. Data from respondents can be typed directly into the templates or copied from word processor documents. Download copies of the EZ-Text software and user documentation free of charge.
