Testimonials

My partner, Martha, began working with the HyperTRANSCRIBE demo and said, "Oh yeah, we've got to have this." I had been aware of HyperResearch for sometime and the reputation it had. The transcription program is a wonderful addition to your package.

The Role of Friendships Between College Women is Explored with HyperRESEARCH

HyperRESEARCH delivered data management and analysis for Ana M. Martínez Alemán's study on "College Women's Female Friendships: A Longitudinal View" appearing in The Journal of Higher Education - Volume 81, Number 5, September/October 2010, pp. 553-582.

The author describes the paper as follows: "From 1993 through 1997 undergraduate women participated in a research project that assessed the cognitive value of college women's female friendships. To capture how the cognitive value of college female friendship had changed since graduation, a qualitative longitudinal cohort study was designed to capture the phenomenon through time. The women who participated perceived the cognitive value of these relationships in ways that are consistent with feminist developmental theories and research, as well as other constructivist suppositions about life-span development. In evaluating the longitudinal data, it was apparent that across all three longitudinal constructs—constancy, change and transition—women understood their college female friendships as developmentally necessary and potent relationships whose cognitive effects carry over into their postcollegiate lives."
