Code-A-Text
Code-A-Text is a software package that was written to help in the training of psychotherapists. It was originally designed to facilitate the analysis of therapeutic conversations where clinicians, teachers and research workers wanted to understand the ideas and structures underlying the “texts”. Recently, Code-A-Text has been applied to other types of “texts”, including
process (field notes), responses to open ended questionnaires and metaplan analyses. Soon to be launched is a version which will support the coding of audio files.
Code-A-Text was written by Dr Alan Cartwright, a psychotherapist who is Director of the Centre for the Study of Psychotherapy, University of Kent at Canterbury, UK.
