Compare the Coders

whose reading holds up?

Two fictional researchers have each coded the same excerpt differently. Read both, form a view on what you make of the difference, then see how an experienced supervisor might unpack it. This isn't about finding the "wrong" coder — most of the time, both readings are defensible. The skill is being able to say why.
