A sigla CAQDAS (Computer Aided Qualitative Data Analysis Software) designa softwares criados para auxiliar na análise de dados qualitativos. Alguns autores possuem opiniões favoráveis acerca da utilidade, eficácia e facilidade de uso desses softwares, outros demonstram dúvidas em relação aos benefícios conseguidos, gerando polêmica e tornando oportuna a criação de um espaço para discussão do tema. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar e analisar os principais aspectos envolvidos nesse debate, levando em consideração as opiniões e os argumentos "favoráveis" e "contrários" ao uso de CAQDAS. Para atender a esse propósito, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica centrada na análise de quatro aspectos: a utilidade do gerenciamento de dados pelo computador, a possibilidade de maior interação do pesquisador com seus dados, a facilitação do processo de comunicação entre pesquisadores e a existência de viés no processo analítico. Discutem-se também algumas experiências nacionais recentes de uso de CAQDAS em pesquisas na área de administração.

This research aims to identify the Malay principal form in the roof decorative elements of Rumah Limas Bumbung Perak (RLBP). Through site observation, the data is collected in the form of images and analysed using the CAQDAS (Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software) of Atlas Ti. 8. The findings of the research found that there are four Malay principal forms; Gunungan, Buah Guntung, Lebah Bergantung and Pohon Beringin present in the roof decorative elements of RLBP. The similarity and uniformity in the engagement of the form and its meaning is identifiable with the traditional houses of the other region which indicates a uniform understanding of the belief system and practises of the craftsmens throughout the Peninsula.
