Line-by-line pdf coding
EPPI-Reviewer 4 now allows line-by-line coding directly on your uploaded pdfs. You are able to highlight relevant areas of text in the pdf and assign codes to that text. This information can then be presented using different report formats including conceptual relationship diagrams.
Line-by-line coding is often used when looking at qualitative research data to carry out a thematic synthesis. This type of data may come from various methods of collection including discussions, surveys and interviews and require the researcher to select sections of the text and apply codes to that text to identify relevant themes and concepts.
For more details on the line-by-line pdf coding functions please see the User manual, the line-by-line pdf coding video or the How to section below.

New report options
New options have been added to the standard configurable reports. These options are available when you run your report.
You can now specify an Additional text tag that will be displayed in front of any text that was entered in the Info box while coding. This will help separate it from any line-by-line pdf coding text that may be displayed.
You now have the option of displaying bullet points in front of your selected codes. When multiple codes are displayed the bullet points help keep each code separate.
You now also have the option of removing items from the report that don’t have any information or codes to display.
If you have ideas about what we could do to make EPPI-Reviewer 4 easier to use please contact us at EPPIsupport@ioe.ac.uk.
