Book Automatisierung in der Inhaltsanalyse

Download or read book Automatisierung in der Inhaltsanalyse written by Katharina Sommer and published by Herbert von Halem Verlag. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Inhaltsanalyse steht als zentrale Erhebungsmethode der Kommunikationswissenschaft angesichts der voranschreitenden technologischen Entwicklungen vor der großen Herausforderung, einzelne Prozesse zu automatisieren. Durch eine (Teil-)Automatisierung der Inhaltsanalyse kann mehr Material codiert werden, es fallen weniger Codierfehler an und nicht zuletzt werden Kosten eingespart. Dem stehen Einschränkungen entgegen, die schon in den letzten Jahrzehnten diskutiert wurden, aber nichts an Aktualität verloren haben: Computergestützte Codierung kann im Gegensatz zu menschlichen Codierern keinen Kontext bei den Codierentscheidungen berücksichtigen, erkennt Doppeldeutigkeiten nicht und bleibt so der impliziten Komponente von Medieninhalten weitestgehend verschlossen. Vor diesem Hintergrund stellen sich die Autoren die Frage, welche Probleme durch die technologischen Weiterentwicklungen der letzten Jahre gelöst und welche Herausforderungen dazugekommen sind. Allerdings wird der Bogen noch etwas weiter gespannt und Bezug genommen auf das kontinuierliche Voranschreiten der Digitalisierung: Nicht nur die Frage wird berücksichtigt, wie automatisiert inhaltsanalytische Daten gewonnen werden können, sondern auch, welche Herausforderungen durch neue Medienangebote an die Inhaltsanalyse gestellt werden.

Book Political Communication in the Online World

Download or read book Political Communication in the Online World written by Gerhard Vowe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-07 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a consequence of the rapid diffusion of online media, the conditions for political communication, and research concerning it have radically changed. Is empirical communication research capable of consistently describing and explaining the changes in political communication in the online world both from a theoretical and methodological perspective? In this book, Gerhard Vowe, Philipp Henn, and a group of leading international experts in the field of communication studies guide the reader through the complexities of political communication, and evaluate whether and to what extent existing theoretical approaches and research designs are relevant to the online world. In the first part of the book, nine chapters offer researchers the opportunity to test the basic assumptions of prominent theories in the field, to specify them in terms of the conditions of political communication in the online world and to modify them in view of the systematically gained experiences. The second methodological section tests the variations of content analysis, surveys, expert interviews and network analyses in an online environment and documents how successful these methods of empirical analysis have proven to be in political communication. Written accessibly and contributing to key debates on political communication, this bookshelf essential presents an indispensable account of the necessary tools needed to allow researchers decide which approach and method is better suited to answer their online problem.

Book Measuring Media Use and Exposure

Download or read book Measuring Media Use and Exposure written by Christina Peter and published by Herbert von Halem Verlag. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The precise measurement of media use and exposure to media content posits currently one of the main methodological challenges in communication research. Against this background, new communication technologies have been gaining particular importance because they change existing patterns of media use and create new types of media use. At the same time, these technologies do not only present a challenge for communication research, but they also provide new opportunities for the assessment of media use. The volume regards current developments and trends in the measurement of media use and exposure from various perspectives. Contributions deal with the refinement and advancement of classical approaches, and new methods and measures of assessing media use are introduced and evaluated. They also discuss the advantages and challenges of using online behavioral data as indicators for media exposure. Contributions tackle questions how different methods of measuring media use and exposure can be combined to gain a more accurate picture and what pitfalls can occur.

Book Rethinking Research Methods in an Age of Digital Journalism

Download or read book Rethinking Research Methods in an Age of Digital Journalism written by Michael Karlsson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital infrastructure of media production, dissemination and consumption is becoming increasingly complex, presenting the challenge of how we should research the digital journalism environment. Digital journalism takes many forms – we therefore need to revise, improve, adjust and even invent methods to understand emerging forms of journalism. In this book, scholars at the forefront of methodological innovations in digital journalism research share their insights on how to collect, process and analyse the diverse expressions of digital journalism, including online news, search results, hyperlinks and social media posts. As digital journalism content often comes in the form of big data, many of these new approaches depart from the traditional methods used in media research in significant ways. As we move towards new ways of understanding digital journalism, the methods developed for such purposes also need to be grounded in scientific rigour. This book aims to share some of the emerging processes by which these methods, tools and approaches are designed, implemented and validated. As such, this book not only constitutes a benchmark for thinking about research methods in digital journalism, it also provides an entry point for graduate students and seasoned scholars aiming to do research on digital journalism. This book was originally published as a special issue of Digital Journalism.

Book The Spaces of Public Issues

Download or read book The Spaces of Public Issues written by Daniela Stoltenberg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideas about matters of public concern are shaped by the spaces associated with them: Events occur in particular places, political regulations apply to specific territories, people in different locations are differentially affected by issues. Yet, political communication research has neglected the question of how the spaces of public issues are constructed in the public sphere. This is especially true for research on social media communication, which is often perceived as placeless. Yet, social media discourses are driven by unequal attention patterns based on users’ interests, resources, and abilities. To understand how these patterns manifest spatially, this interdisciplinary monograph builds on public spheres theory, communication infrastructure theory, and urban sociology to develop the framework of issue spatiality. It focuses on how social media users discuss different places in urban policy issue discourses. By applying the framework to four large-scale Twitter discourses on housing markets and cycling infrastructure in two German cities, Berlin and Frankfurt, the research reveals the spatial patterns and inequalities of social media discourses. It demonstrates that digital discourses are overwhelmingly focused on a small number of places in the urban center. These places emerge as the locus of activism and political controversy, while the urban periphery remains hidden or is discussed in purely administrative terms. Places with dense civic infrastructure and privileged residents receive disproportionate attention. The book provides an in-depth look at the ways in which socio-spatial inequalities are inscribed in public communication and shape ideas about societal issues.

Book Dynamische Prozesse der   ffentlichen Kommunikation

Download or read book Dynamische Prozesse der ffentlichen Kommunikation written by Philipp Müller and published by Herbert von Halem Verlag. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Öffentliche Kommunikationsprozesse sind im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung von einer wachsenden Dynamik geprägt. Dies stellt die Kommunikationsforschung vor erhebliche methodische Herausforderungen. Die Methodenentwicklung steckt noch in den Kinderschuhen, wenn es darum geht, die eng getakteten und komplexen Interaktionsmuster menschlicher Akteure und technischer Strukturen der digitalen Öffentlichkeit adäquat abzubilden. Empirische Studien sind dazu gezwungen, die Komplexität der Dynamiken in der sozialen Realität zu reduzieren, um diese fassbar zu machen. Damit geht jedoch stets die Gefahr einher, entscheidende Aspekte zu übersehen. Die in diesem Band versammelten Beiträge widmen sich diesem Dilemma am Beispiel verschiedener Anwendungsfelder, von der Kommunikator- und Medieninhaltsforschung bis zur Rezeptions- und Wirkungsforschung. Die Beiträge liegen auf verschiedenen Stufen des Forschungsprozesses und befassen sich mit einer Vielzahl methodischer Ansätze wie der automatisierten Inhaltsanalyse, der Netzwerkanalyse oder der qualitativen Beobachtung. Sie eint die Suche nach innovativen Lösungen für ein gemeinsames Problem, nämlich die zunehmende Dynamik öffentlicher Kommunikationsprozesse adäquat abzubilden.

Download or read book Zoomland written by Florentina Armaselu and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-31 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a variety of theoretical and practical undertakings, there is no coherent understanding of the concept of scale in digital history and humanities, and its potential is largely unexplored. A clearer picture of the whole spectrum is needed, from large to small, distant to close, global to local, general to specific, macro to micro, and the in-between levels. The book addresses these issues and sketches out the territory of Zoomland, at scale. Four regions and sixteen chapters are conceptually and symbolically depicted through three perspectives: bird's eye, overhead, and ground view. The variable-scale representation allows for exploratory paths covering areas such as: theoretical and applicative reflections on scale combining a digital dimension with research in history, media studies, cultural heritage, literature, text analysis, and map modelling; creative use of scale in new digital forms of analysis, data organisation, interfaces, and argumentative or artistic expressions. Zoomland provides a systematic discussion on the epistemological dimensions, hermeneutic methods, empirical tools, and aesthetic logic pertaining to scale and its innovative possibilities residing in humanities-based approaches and digital technologies.
