2023 - Franco Angeli

24-49 p.

  • As part of a quantitative and qualitative investigation of religiosity (The contribution of the Automatic Treatment of Language for qualitative sociological analysis. An ex-post verification of an interdisciplinary experience: problematic aspects and methodological perspectives) in Italy, the possibility of using computational linguistic analysis to analyze and interpret the data obtained from 164 qualitative interviews administered throughout the country has been tested, according to a specially reasoned sampling. In particular, a program called T2K (Text-to-Knowledge) was used, first providing a list of 219 "sensitizing concepts", chosen from the contents of the transcripts of the interviews, to guide the research, and then giving indications on the paths of investigation to follow.
  • The article is the result of the reflections and discussions of all the researchers on the methodology of the survey, the difficulties encountered, the problems emerged and the solutions adopted. In a sense, we can speak of a kind of research on research, to open new horizons and above all to encourage a more effective interdisciplinary collaboration. [Publisher's text].
