Intracoder reliability refers to consistency within a single coder. There are many different types of codes that are commonly used in qualitative data analysis. You may decide to use a set of already existing codes with your data. These are called a priori codes. A priori codes are codes that are developed before examining the current data.
Many qualitative researchers like to develop the codes as they code the data.
These codes are called inductive code Inductive codes are codes that are developed by the researcher by directly examining the data. As you code your data, you may find that the same segment of data gets coded with more than one code. That's fine, and it commonly occurs. These sets of codes are called co-occurring codes. Co-occurring codes are codes that partially or completely overlap.
