Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter describes the history of secondary qualitative analysis, starting with B. G. Glaser in 1962. Glaser identified the initial phase in secondary analysis as focusing on the researcher questioning the comparability of the primary data. Glaser identified other benefits of secondary analysis, such as “economies,” which included it being a less expensive process and economy in time since secondary analysis can be accomplished faster than having to collect data. J. West and P. Oldfather labeled their secondary analysis of qualitative research “pooled case comparison,” which begins with raw data. Sociologists in the United Kingdom and nurse researchers in Canada and the United States took the lead in the early publications on qualitative secondary analysis. J. Heaton published an article on secondary analysis of qualitative data in Social Research Update. Heaton identified three main modes of qualitative secondary analysis: formal data sharing, informal data sharing, and self-collected data.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
