Reading the signal · The weighting · Element
The frequency
How often the theme appears.
The part
What it is
Counted from the coded set, as a share of respondents rather than of comments, since one person can raise a theme three times.
Tracked across periods, since a theme rising is more informative than a theme being common.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries
Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
