Data Processing Techniques
Editing
- A process wherein the data collected are checked for consistency, accuracy, organization, and clarity.
However, editing should be distinguished from fabricating and falsifying data, which involve omitting,
changing, or making up the information.
Coding
- A process where the gathered data are classified into categories, numerals, symbols, or other systems of
labeling. When coding your data, you first need to examine them carefully as well as the research
instruments used to fully understand your data and how you will organize them.
- Afterwards, you need to develop a coding frame. This will serve as your guide or outline of what data to
be coded and how you will code them. Make sure that the categories you will use in coding are aligned
with the research questions or objectives of your study.
Tabulation
- A process of condensing the raw data into a more compact form. In many cases, a table is used for this
purpose. Tabulation may be done electronically or manually depending on the size of the data. If the
amount of collected data is large, electronic tabulation may be a more viable option. If it is small,
manual tabulation may be sufficient.
- When using a table for data tabulation, clearly state its title and describe its components and their
relationships with one another. Figures that can be compared to one another should be presented side by
side. This will be helpful during the actual analysis of your data. Organize the data based on the research
questions so that you can immediately grasp the possible findings for these items when certain data are
missing.
