“Instead of paying humans to join focus groups and complete surveys, #Auru uses thousands of #AI agents, or bots, to simulate human responses. It feeds #demographic and psychographic information into its models to create human profiles that match clients’ needs, and the results those bots spit out are being used for product #development, #pricing, identifying new customers and political #polling.”

Researchers have warned about the inaccuracies of treating #LLMs as human proxies (https://doi.org/10.1007/s10462-025-11297-5), but I wouldn’t be surprised #languageModels beat #qualitative interpretation of non-representative focus groups.

On 26 September at 14 hrs, we* are co-organizing the #workshop: "Positionality statements: a tool to open Your research".

A lot of attention within the #OpenScience debate has been given to sharing research materials. This workshop focuses on opening up and sharing the decisions and assumptions underlying the research process of why, what and how studies are conducted. The event is aimed at both #qualitative and #quantitative researchers.

🖥️ We collected the #SocialMedia data from #Twitter from 2021 until 2023 and used #Rstats and #Python to perform analyses.

We used #IssueAttentionCycle framework with #qualitative and #quantitative approaches to examine how public discussions changed throughout the study period.

#introduction

I am economist & political scientist (PhD) and conduct #research and #evaluation on #SocialRiskManagement #ClimateChange #GlobalDevelopment #SocialProtection #PublicHealth #CooperativeStudies.

My current focus is on the topics #ClimateChangeAdaptation, #DisasterRiskManagement, #RuralDevelopment, #HealthCareFinancing, #HealthSystem‎‎s.

#ResearchMethods: #MixedMethods & #MethodIntegration, #Quantitative & #Qualitative #Methods, #RigorousImpactEvaluation, #Causality, #Econometrics.

@envpsyvienna at #AlpsAdriaPsychologyConference in Klagenfurt. @leoniefian presents her research on perceptions of #microplastics in food and #plastic #policysupport, using #qualitative and #quantitative approaches. Key take-away: involve all actors in a system in #systemchange.

Qualitative research epistemologies keep popping up today for some reason. First this nuanced critique of #openscience ties to #postpositivism, then discovering a positivist-leaning checklist for #qualitative research reporting. I don't expect I'll ever be a critical realist or anything, but I appreciate #reflexivity more over time. https://markrubin.substack.com/p/opening-up-open-science-to-epistemic?r=2bqjb7 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17872937/

Can you have queer theory, and a set qualitative methodology?

Great sounding #qualitative online seminar from CQ (UoAlberta):

In this spirit of the Buddhist teaching referenced above, in this seminar, Stéphanie Wahab and Yoosun Park consider #methodologies of #resistance through the use of #feminist, interpretive, and anti-colonial theories in #research.

The Greta Thunberg Effect: A Study of Norwegian Youth’s Reflexivity on Climate Change.

Abstract:

This study reports on an unique opportunity to compare four quantitative/qualitative datasets from 2017 to 2021, before and after the activist Greta Thunberg became known to the general public.

For my degree, I did a #qualitative, #ParticipantObserver #Ethnographic study of alternative club culture.

I want(ed) to document all the tiny subcultural facets of #greb #clubbing because, when I went to the journals - there was pretty much nothing. There was some stuff about #hardcore and #StraightEdgePunk but that was pretty old.

I feel sad that a subculture that is such a part of many people's identity isn't documented more.

Amazing morning, just learned I can intensify my engagement with the #qdas #qualitative #data #analysis software #QualCoder via a direct chat with its developer this week to solve some frictions.

On that note, I look so much forward to seeing how my students @KAEEGoetheUni will engage with, make use of, this software over the next months.

I like it because it is #OpenSource, #free, and available across various platforms.
