The purpose of this manuscript is to describe a data analysis technique, content analysis, used to examine written or verbal communication, and to discuss the potential of content analysis for application within early intervention. Special attention is directed at the use of referential or thematic recording units derived from data obtained in interview format. The article identifies specific procedural guidelines for the early interventionist researcher to utilize, and addresses issues of rigor, and validity. Discussion follows of the use of content analysis within the field of early intervention.
