OBSERVING OPINIONS
Measuring Opinionated Communication
Dig into the EU COST network OPINION with Wendo
The European Union’s (EU) COST network OPINION (www.opinion-network.eu) is an international network of researchers collaborating to develop and integrate conceptual foundations, computational measurement strategies, and research agendas for the study of textual expressions of evaluative opinions. As a concerted effort to address one of the key challenges in the study of digital textual data, OPINION advances a trans-disciplinary, multilingual, culturally sensitive, and collaborative approach to studying opinionated communication.
This podcast allows you to dig into the network.
Observing Opinions: What is opinionated communication?
In the first episode, Wendo King'ang'i and Christian Baden dive into the concept of opinionated communication — what it is, how it shows up in our daily lives, and why it matters. They also touch on the current state of research and what the future holds for this fascinating topic.
In this podcast we aim to introduce and discuss the OPINION COST Action CA21129. The network convenes early- and mid-career researchers from over 35 European countries, Israel, and the US, integrating cutting-edge expertise from different disciplines (notably, communication science, computational linguistics, IT) while networking the many, hitherto largely disconnected language communities of textual researchers.
