"An interesting question - how widely used are CAQDAS in academe? " (Helen)
Very rarely here in Portugal. I don't know of any Universities who use it.
Maybe someone on the list could tell me? I'd love to know. I'd also like
to be using it myself, but as it's pretty much unknown here (so I would have
difficulty persuading my Institution to purchase it) and I can't self
finance it, I won't be doing so for a while.

Subject: Re: CAQDAS usage - how far does it go?
An interesting question - how widely used are CAQDAS in academe? In my
School of 20+ qualitative researchers there are only four CAQDAS users;
all except me are younger/contract staff. So my answer is that CAQDAS is
widely accepted and used by younger researchers, and blithely ignored by
many older ones.
