I always wonder how much it should actually be done to the "coding" [1] standards in the social sciences. Social scientists working with qualitative data start analyzing by putting codes in various specialized ways to the data. In more rigorous studies those codes are simultaneously assign by different researchers and then cross-checked. There is a lot of literature of how to come up with codes, e.g., Grounded Theory, and how to go further. I always think that we need to bridge the gap between engineers and social scientists working on the same problems.
