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: Why Should we Care About Opinionated Communication?
In this episode, we are joined by Prof. Helle Sjøvaag, journalism researcher and founding member of the OPINION Network. She shares how the network came to life and why it’s vital for studying how opinions form and spread online. We explore how digital spaces — from social media to news sites — shape what we think and how we express it. Helle unpacks the hidden influence of technology, power, and money on online discourse. Tune in to hear why building supportive networks is crucial in navigating these turbulent spaces — and how collective research can make a real difference.
