Customer Reviews

Excellent introduction for media content analysts

This is an excellent introductory book for the people begining their on project where content analysis is needed. It is clear, simple, straightforward and illuminating! I would even suggest that this book should be the first book that any beginner in content analysis should read.

Highly recommended

This book by Daniel Riffe et al. not only gives an excellent overview of the research field of quantitative content analysis, but also useful recommendations on solving that particular analysis or measurement problem that you are facing. Using this book, I found it much easier to quantitatively measure structured interview results. The examples given in the book are often from the media world, but are generally applicable. Recommended.
