Innovating Responsibly to Produce Advanced Biofuels in India

How they used Delve

Science policy researchers at Jawaharlal Nehru University used Delve for qualitative content analysis of stakeholder interviews on India's advanced biofuel sector, coding values such as efficiency, collaboration, and awareness and ranking them by the number of Delve snippets each code collected.

“Building on field-work interviews and qualitative content analysis (via Delve tool), we present below a table illustrating the frequency with which [values were coded]. [...] In the delve tool, by clicking on a code when text is selected applies that code to the selected text. These segments of texts that have been coded are called 'Snippets'.”
