Making an interview transcription is possible in three ways:

Three types of transcription

Verbatim transcription

Verbatim transcribing means typing out everything, including filler words (uhms and aahs). This is also called literal transcribing. It is often used in qualitative research where human reactions have to be monitored. For example, in psychological examinations or marketing research.

Clean transcription

Clean transcription includes the spoken words but removes filler words, stutters and repetitions. This method is useful if the emotions and intonation of a respondent are not important. The clean (or edited) transcription can be used for an article in the newspaper or for your thesis. This form of transcription is the most common.

Summary transcription

The final type is called “summary transcription”. Interview transcriptions are rarely made using this approach. Summarizing the contents of the transcription is usually done during editing. This form is used, among other things, for rendering meetings.
