Rinehart and Yeater (2011) study the narratives of women who have experienced sexual victimization in order to reassess the Sexual Experiences Survey (SES). The researchers report that “of the 85 narratives provided by participants, 7 were excluded from analysis because either they described a victimization experience before the age of 14 or did not provide sufficient information about the sexual victimization.” (p. 930). What stage in qualitative data analysis does this example best represent?
a. documentation
b. conceptualization and categorizing
c. examining relationships
d. authenticating conclusions
e. reflexivity
