商品描述

Students in social science courses communicate, socialize, shop, learn, and work online. When they are asked to collect data for course projects they are often drawn to social media platforms and other online sources of textual data. There are many software packages and programming languages available to help students collect data online, and there are many texts designed to help with different forms of online research, from surveys to ethnographic interviews. But there is no textbook available that teaches students how to construct a viable research project based on online sources of textual data such as newspaper archives, site user comment archives, digitized historical documents, or social media user comment archives. Gabe Ignatow and Rada F. Mihalcea′s new text An Introduction to Text Mining will be a starting point for undergraduates and first-year graduate students interested in collecting and analyzing textual data from online sources, and will cover the most critical issues that students must take into consideration at all stages of their research projects, including: ethical and philosophical issues; issues related to research design; web scraping and crawling; strategic data selection; data sampling; use of specific text analysis methods; and report writing.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

社會科學課程中的學生們在線上進行溝通、社交、購物、學習和工作。當他們被要求收集課程專案的數據時,他們通常會被吸引到社交媒體平台和其他線上的文本數據來源。有許多軟體套件和程式語言可供學生們在線上收集數據使用,也有許多教材專為不同形式的線上研究提供幫助,從調查到民族誌訪談。但目前還沒有一本教材能夠教導學生如何基於線上文本數據來源(如報紙檔案、網站使用者評論檔案、數字化的歷史文件或社交媒體使用者評論檔案)建立一個可行的研究專案。Gabe Ignatow和Rada F. Mihalcea的新教材《文字探勘入門》將成為本科生和研究生在收集和分析線上文本數據方面的起點,並涵蓋學生在研究專案的各個階段都必須考慮的最關鍵問題,包括:倫理和哲學問題;與研究設計相關的問題;網頁爬蟲和網頁抓取;策略性數據選擇;數據抽樣;特定文本分析方法的使用;以及報告撰寫。
