I have an MA in Psychology and am a social worker. This won't be a complete answer, but will give you some ideas. There are many ways to 'measure' qualitative data. One thing to consider is that 'measurement' may not be what you want to do. Depending on the nature and amount of data, you can read the data for general trends, and comment on them. Striking and important information can come to light just from this step. You can have objective readers put responses into pre-defined categories: Positive vs Negative, or any other kinds of categories that you want to define. You can also do an analysis of the actual words used in the data. There are software packages that are designed to do this (SPSS, for example. I do not work for SPSS). These are just a few ideas.
