Gereedschapsbeschrijving door de auteur:

Clarification of tool name: What was previously known as the Siminoff Communication Content and Affect Program (SCCAP) has undergone significant technological revisions and is now known as SimCode. Because the changes were mainly programming updates rather than changes to the content or process, the previous papers citing SCCAP are still applicable.

A short training module (~40 minute video) is available by request that provides an overview of how to use SimCode. SimCode is an online program that needs to be hosted by the user's servers, and is usually used in an academic setting for research. Security requirements may vary by institution, but, as developed and hosted at Temple University, is completely HIPAA-compliant. Transcripts, but not audio or video, are uploaded to SimCode.
