Description:
Doctoral Training Centre Workshop: Quantitative Text Analysis: Quantitative Content Analysis and Dictionary Approaches one day workshop on advanced topics in quantitative research methodology. This workshop assumes a background in quantitative methods at least covering basic statistics, linear and logistic regression. Each workshop consists of a 2 hour lecture plus 2 hour computer class. While many of the workshops are part of a series on related topics, each workshop is self-contained, and can be attended without attending and other workshops.
This workshop is for current PhD Students Only.
Classic (quantitative) content analysis involves the development of coding schemes, the conversion of texts into discrete units and the assignment of codes to each unit based on the coding scheme. This topic covers manual unitization and coding approaches, including the construction of coding frames and different schemes for unitizing texts.
