| − | + | * Currently, CSV, XLSX and json are supported '''export formats'''. Although SPSS is not supported, you can import a CSV or XLSX file into SPSS. | |
| − | + | * '''Metadata''' such as date, headline and medium are coded automatically by AmCAT. Select here which metadata to include in the dataset. | |

| + | * Under ‘'''Field options'''’ – the manually coded variables -- you can select '''which variables''' you want to '''include in the dataset'''. By default, all variables are included. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Furthermore, for '''codebook variables''', you can select whether you only want to export its '''ID''' (the number given to the code by amcat), its '''labels''' (entered for each code in the codebook editor) or '''both'''. If you use SPSS or Stata to analyze the data, you might want to download (also) the IDs and then attach the labels to the IDs ('values') in SPSS/Stata itself. | ||
| − | + | * ‘'''Export # parents'''’ is for '''hierarchical codebooks''' – each ‘# parent’ creates an additional variable for a higher level in the hierarchy. For example, the variable '''Topic''' in the example shown here has a hierarchical codebook, as shown in the screenshots [[create a codebook|here]]. Two possible topics you can code are Terrorism in Europe and Terrorism in the Middle East, which, in this codebook, are both considered types of terrorism, that is, they are 'children' of the 'parent' terrorism. If you choose to export 0 parents, you export the codes exactly as they are coded: Terrorism, Terrorism in Europe, and Terrorism in the Middle East. If you instead choose to export 1 parent, AmCAT adds an additional variable to the dataset which aggregates both Terrorism in Europe and Terrorism in the Middle East to the level of their parent, meaning that the value for both of these codes is 'Terrorism' for this variable. | |
