Who transcribed the data?
Paid staff, interns and volunteers were recruited to transcribe approximately half of the interviews, the other half were done by a contractor outside of Sisters. Each interview transcript was typically between 20 to 50 pages in length, which would take a non-professional at least 5 hours to complete. More detailed information on this is included in our research manual (http://www.sistersoftheroad.org/elists/?p=subscribe&id=2) on page 33.
