Reflexive Thematic Analysis

概要

This tool provides a structured methodology and practical infrastructure for conducting Braun & Clarke's Reflexive Thematic Analysis using AI as a dialogic partner. It addresses the challenges of systematically working through large qualitative datasets with AI, ensuring data coherence, persistent progress tracking, and safeguarding the researcher's interpretive authority against the risks of AI mediation. Delivered as an extension for Claude Desktop, it loads specific analytical frameworks at each research phase, allowing researchers to engage in a productive, methodologically grounded dialogue with the AI to propose, evaluate, and refine codes.
