Human versus GPT-4 in qualitative analysis: A comparative reanalysis of patient interview data following anterior cruciate ligament injury rehabilitation

The analysis performed by humans and GPT-4 had similarities and differences. The use of GPT-4 for qualitative analysis in its present form is challenging and needs to be performed across several steps. Currently, GPT-4 should not be used as the only tool in a qualitative analysis of interview data.

Abstract

The analysis performed by humans and GPT-4 had similarities and differences. The use of GPT-4 for qualitative analysis in its present form is challenging and needs to be performed across several steps. Currently, GPT-4 should not be used as the only tool in a qualitative analysis of interview data.
