Büyük Dil Modelleri ve İnsan Uzman Kodlamasının Nitel Araştırmada Karşılaştırılması: Duygusal Zeka Üzerine Bir Vaka Çalışması

Özet (abstract)

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for qualitative coding, but their ability to recover human-defined construct boundaries remains unclear. Existing studies rarely distinguish thematic granularity from dimension-level semantic alignment. We compare a 12-dimension emotional-intelligence (EI) framework developed from 34 Chinese behavioral-event interviews with three zero-shot LLM analyses of the same corpus under an identical prompt. A structured framework-level mapping procedure classified each human dimension as directly recovered, partially or merged, or not recovered. Alignment was summarized using direct, broad, and frequency-weighted coverage, theme-count precision, and pairwise Jaccard similarities for the three mapping types. Two senior experts evaluated 36 dimension-level relationships, and retained LLM quotations were manually checked against the original transcripts; no fabricated quotations were identified. Direct coverage ranged from 75.0% to 91.7%, broad coverage from 83.3% to 100.0%, and frequency-weighted mapping from 80.3% to 94.9%. Theme-count precision was 50.0% for DeepSeek, 69.2% for Qwen, and 55.6% for GPT. Eight dimensions were directly recovered across all outputs, whereas guidance and motivation, big-picture awareness, care and support orientation, and teamwork varied across outputs. An independent expert reproduced all 36 mappings, yielding 100% raw agreement. The findings distinguish thematic granularity from construct-boundary recovery and support LLMs as complementary analytical assistants.
