Computational Communication Research

[2/2] What they find is that incompletely shared data and code are the main (but not the only) issues. Based on their experience, they offer us and the rest of the field, some suggestions on how we can improve the state of reproducibility. Always welcome!

[1/2] What makes computational communication science (ir)reproducible? @chainsawriot, @Kudusch, and @JohannesBGruber answer this question in our newest article by attempting to reproduce all research published in CCR: doi.org/10.5117/CCR202…

@spiderjens @CommediaLivUni Thank-you! - doi.org/10.5117/CCR202…

@CCR_OpenJournal @CommediaLivUni Could you provide the DOI or the URL? Many thx!

📰Published: Conversation can change minds. M. Pogson and T. Nicholls of @CommediaLivUni model this with simple opinions. Diversity can make public opinion more extreme. Minority influence can be significant. They show how social media activity may interact with breaking news.

📣Just out: @daniel_t_thiele leverages word-embedding representations of dictionaries and machine translation to investigate user-generated populism in comments during COVID-19 in 7 European countries, finding varying effects of restrictive policies. doi.org/10.5117/CCR202…

📢New article @ CCR! L. de Bruyne, @TonivdMeer, O. De Clercq and V. Hoste leverage machine learning models to analyze emotions in Dutch crisis-related tweets and introduces a framework for monitoring emotional climates on social media during crises. Link: doi.org/10.5117/CCR202…

📢 CCR is now also on Bluesky! Follow us @ computationalcommunication.org

New Paper! @jana_bhard and @boomgaardenhg investigate the role of validation methods in topic model selection, showing how different approaches can influence the chosen model, impacting study results, and thus also theory development. Available here: doi.org/10.5117/CCR202…
