Qualitative analysis of Twitter data
Dear Scholars, I am conducting research on the social media (Twitter) discourses of the Anna Hazare anti-corruption movement in India. I have a corpus of tweets collected during five days that are significant for the movement. I would highly appreciate any recommendations for literature on qualitative (thematic/discourse/content) analysis of Twitter data, especially in the context of a social/protest movement. Please feel free to write to me off the list if you have any questions. Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Satarupa, Our work wasnt related to social/protest movements, but we conducted a study looking at tweets related to concussion in sport and used basic content analysis on the tweets we retrieved: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21406451 Hope that helps!

Hi, Satarupa. My colleague Joel Penney and I have an article forthcoming in the next issue of New Media and Society about the use of Twitter in Occupy Wall Street. While we did not analyze specific tweets (our data derived from interviews with OWS participants), hopefully parts of it will be useful to you. An advance copy of the article is available through this link, if you have access to Sage publications. http://nms.sagepub.com/content/early/recent Best, Caroline On Mon, Apr 1, 2013 at 1:13 PM, Ronald E.

Hi everyone. What a great Q Satarupa! I have an article that was recently published online first (upcoming in print) in a special issue of the American Behavioral Scientist edited by Zeynep Tufekci and Deen Freelon explored the possibilities of learning about the Occupy Wall Street movement through the #OWS hashtag. I'm attaching the link to the article as well. Thanks to Caroline and Joel for passing on their article about OWS, I can't wait to read it :) Here's mine: http://intl-abs.sagepub.com/content/early/2013/03/15/0002764213479372.abstra...

Hi Satarupa I found this one very useful for its analysis of social sense making using twitter. Nat Heverin, T., & Zach, L. (2011).

I (sorta) maintain a bibliography of Twitter research at: http://www.danah.org/researchBibs/twitter.php Anyone can add their own research to the list by clicking "submit new citation" on the upper right corner. I'd strongly welcome/encourage folks to submit their work because lots of researchers from different fields visit this site pretty regularly. The articles on this list cover a lot of ground, far beyond qualitative analysis, but there's a lot of material there that's qualitative too. I hope that this helps! danah On Mar 31, 2013, at 7:25 PM, Satarupa Joardar wrote:
