#aBitOfCCS on dictionaries with Anke Stoll hosted by Emese Domahidi
Listen now
Description
Today's CCS study is about the application and particularly the development of dictionaries to apply to quantitative text analyses. Anke Stoll (together with Lena Wilms and Marc Ziegele in this publication from 2023) developed a dictionary to detect German incivility.

The journal article was just published in Communication Methods and Measures. Oh, and if you want to guest or host a future episode, please don't hesitate reaching out to us.
