Go to ‘Coding Schemas’ in the ‘Coding’ dropdown menu, and there click on ‘New schema’ to create a new coding scheme.
First, give the schema a name and a description, and choose whether it is an article- or unitschema. The default coding scheme is a unitschema, for sentence level codings. If you want to make coding scheme for article level codings, tick the box for ‘Isarticleschema’.
If you want to use a highlighter, select both the highlighter and the highlight language. If the codingschema does not use highlighting, select any highlight language.
Click on Submit, and in the next screen on ‘Edit fields’ to start adding variables to the new coding scheme.
This opens the codingschema editor, where you can add variables.
