Abstract

Transcription is central to qualitative research in sport and exercise psychology; voice recognition software offers one way to enhance the process. The objective of this paper is to critically discuss its use within narrative analysis and disability studies research in sport and exercise psychology. The way in which one transcribes with the software enables a deeper understanding of the data and allows the user to more readily make memos during transcription. Furthermore, the software can speed transcription and make the process less physically taxing. Additional technical advantages and disadvantages are also presented.
