analyses the frequencies of our _words_ But not of _groups of words_

[testracer]

Hi there,

thank you for your tool!

KH-Coder analyses the frequencies of our words!

• Is there possibility to identify the frequencies of occurring groups of words in a list which later has to be related to concrete car-equipment-features.
  -- I think I realy do mean: identify occurring groups of words, not: words.

e.g:
cardesc1 wrote this as long descriptionstring into db:
Webasto parking heater, seat heater,
cardesc2 wrote this into db:
Rear window heating, Heated steering wheel,

But KH-coder the Quantitative Content Analysis shows most frequent words, not groups of words

Please dont get my question wrong, or unprecise, but at the moment I see in KH-Coder many analyses referenced to words but not to groups of words
-- I must confess: At the moment I don't see any solid floor with the many possibilities of the tool.

Step 1: roughly understand what groups of words appeared in your data

I recommend creating co-occurrences networks. In this analysis, you will find a network like [steering]-[wheel]-[heat]-[seart], if those words appeared frequent enough.

Also, in "Word Association" screen, you can type "heat" and hit Enter key to look for groups of words that contain "heat".

Step 2: counting exact number of groups of words

Option 1: extract it as a word

Go to [PRe-Processing] [Select Words to Analyze] in the menu and enter "seat heater" in the "force pick up" field. Then click "OK" and run pre-processing again.

Option 2: composing a coding rule file (recommended)

See the tutorial and manual to understand what is the coding rule and how to compose it.
