What the study analyzed
Bilingual interviews, around 45 minutes each, analyzed with thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006).
How Evidano fit the workflow
AI-assisted first pass, human-verified outcome
- 1Transcribe interviews
Ten recorded, in-depth interviews transcribed for analysis.
- 2Identify initial themes with Evidano
The publication reports the tool was used to quickly sift the data and surface initial themes.
- 3Refine and verify by hand
The study describes refining the initial output through manual thematic analysis to verify the themes.
- 4Publish, with the tool disclosed
Evidano (published as AILYZE) is named in the Method section, with a link, in an open-access Elsevier journal.
“AILYZE was employed to quickly sift through the data, using its algorithmic capabilities to identify initial themes.”
“The first step involved identifying the themes using a combination of AILYZE and manual thematic analysis.”
Two ways to reach your themes
Read every transcript before any theme emerges. Slow first pass across long, bilingual data. Themes surface only after repeated manual rounds.
Rapid first-pass theme identification. Researchers refine and verify by hand. A faster route from transcripts to verified themes.
Used in the study to quickly sift interview data and surface initial themes.
Researchers refined and verified the AI-assisted output through manual analysis.
