    A Lightweight Interactive Regular Expression Generator for Qualitative Coding in Quantitative Ethnography

    Quantitative ethnography approaches are often used to analyze large scale qualitative data. Manually coding such data is expensive and time consuming, if not impractical or impossible. In contrast, machine lea...

    Zero Re-centered Projection: An Alternative Proposal for Modeling Empty Networks in ENA

    This paper examines the impact of having empty networks in an Epistemic Network Analysis model, that is, units whose networks contain no connections in a given model. These empty networks, also known as zero p...

    Quality and Safety Education for Nursing (QSEN) in Virtual Reality Simulations: A Quantitative Ethnographic Examination

    In this paper, we argue that virtual reality (VR) simulations can be used to (a) scaffold nursing students’ practice of cognitive-psychomotor-social skills, and (b) provide feedback on their decisions; thus, m...
