Checklist
Questions to ask during constant comparison
A checklist of seven questions to ask each time a new interview or observation comes in during constant comparative analysis. It covers likeness and difference, category properties, cases that break the pattern, memo writing and theoretical sampling. Use it as a prompt card for qualitative researchers and product teams who analyse interviews while fieldwork is still running. Koji makes this easier by analysing each interview as soon as it is done.

- How is it different, and what does that tell me?
- Does it add a new property to the category?
- Does it fit more than one category?
- Is this a case that breaks the pattern?
- What memo should I write before I forget it?
