Dear colleagues, This is a reminder that the below call for extended abstracts for a special issue on 'applying & validating multilingual text analysis for social science research' in the open access journal Computational Communication Research is closing *on 12 September. * For more information, please see the message below, or use the following link: https://computationalcommunication.org/ccr/cfp_multilingual All the best, Martijn Schoonvelde --------------------- We are inviting contributions for a special issue on 'applying & validating multilingual text analysis for social science research' in Computational Communication Research. The special issue will bring together papers that develop, validate, explain, and apply multilingual computational text analysis methods. We welcome two different types of submissions: - Research Articles: manuscripts that introduce, use, and validate multilingual computational methods to examine important theoretical questions in communications, political science, or other social sciences. This also includes manuscripts that make a theoretical and fundamental methodological contribution to our understanding of multilingual CTAM. - Workshop Articles: manuscripts that explain how to use an existing or novel computational method to study large multilingual datasets. Workshop manuscripts are expected to be very practical, to include open-source code that readers can adapt for their own work, and to have clear recommendations about which fields/questions can benefit from the described method. Extended abstracts (limited to 1500 words) should be submitted through the journal’s online system no later than 12 September, 2022. More detailed information and submission guidelines can be found on the CCR website: https://computationalcommunication.org/ccr/cfp_multilingual Computational Communication Research is open access and completely free for authors and readers. You will retain copyright on your article and it will be published under a Creative Commons Attribution license. *Deadlines:* - Extended abstracts are due September 12th, 2022. - Decisions on the extended abstracts will be made by September 19th, 2022. - Full papers for accepted extended abstracts will be due November 30th, 2022. Papers will then be subject to external blind peer review. - Publication of final accepted articles is expected in the first half of 2023. Please feel free to contact the guest editors, Christian Baden ( c.baden@mail.huji.ac.il), Martijn Schoonvelde (martijn.schoonvelde@rug.nl), and Mariken van der Velden (m.a.c.g.vander.velden@vu.nl), if you have questions about additional details or whether your research fits the scope of the special issue. -- Dr Martijn Schoonvelde Assistant Professor in European Politics & Society Faculty of Arts University of Groningen mschoonvelde.com
