qdap (Quantitative Discourse Analysis Package) is an R package designed to
assist in quantitative discourse analysis. The package stands as a bridge
between qualitative transcripts of dialogue and statistical analysis and
visualization.
This is the first CRAN release of
qdap:?http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/qdap/index.html
The qdap package automates many of the tasks associated with quantitative
discourse analysis of transcripts containing discourse including frequency
counts of sentence types, words, sentence, turns of talk, syllable counts and
other assorted analysis tasks. The package provides parsing tools for preparing
transcript data. Many functions enable the user to aggregate data by any number
of grouping variables providing analysis and seamless integration with other R
packages that undertake higher level analysis and visualization of text. This
provides the user with a more efficient and targeted analysis.
Github development version:?https://github.com/trinker/qdap
As qdap is further developed the following are planned: (a) a github hosted
website via statics (b) a help video section and (c) a vignette detailing
workflow and use of qdap.
