Abstract :
GroupAnalyzer, a computerized system for coding and analysis of group meetings, is introduced. The system consists of two main modules: the coding module and the analysis module. The coding module enables the coder to create entries in the meeting protocol together with a set of tools for manipulating meeting protocols. The analysis module consists of a set of tools for analysis of meeting protocols. The two modules are independent but have been merged together into one system to permit analysis of meeting protocols at any stage of their creation. Some of the features that GroupAnalyzer provides are: fast and accurate coding, accurate timing, fast feedback, integrated numerical and graphical representation, and comprehensive dynamic analysis. Experiments in which GroupAnalyzer is used to code 65 meetings are also discussed
