Editing is an important step in preparing documents for data entry especially for self-administered surveys that are often filled out in nonconforming ways. All paper surveys are checked in, assigned ID numbers and batch control codes that allow us to quickly locate individual documents as needed during the data cleaning process.
Coding is often required for open-ended questions or freestyle text answers in order to tabulate the responses within categories. The codebook is built by reviewing a percentage of verbatim responses and producing what is called a comment summary. Numeric codes are then assigned for the most frequent mentions, thus allowing qualitative answers to be captured quantitatively. Verbatim responses keyed from paper surveys can be done in a variety of electronic or hard copy formats.
