by #DigitalData4OS:
Julien Jourdan (HEC Paris); Michael Etter (KCL); Elanor Colleoni (IULM)
Sponsors and local organizers: Davide Ravasi (UCL); Konstantin Scheuerman (UCL); Erik Lie (UCL)
Date: 19/04/2 024 Time: 09:00 AM Venue: UCL School of Management
After its successful launch last year, this one-day workshop will bring together organization and management scholars (interested in) using digital data for quantitative and qualitative research on organizational phenomena in the digital age. Researchers are invited to present their current work, exchange ideas, and share their experience with the goal to identify best practices and evolving standards for quantitative and qualitative research approaches of digital data and methods (including the role of AI for such methods), discuss strategies for publishing research in this area, and build a community of scholars.
We invite senior and junior researchers (including PhD students) applying or interested in:
- qualitative research methods, such as netnography, multi-modal analysis, use of AI for qualitative analyses, and cultural analysis among others
- quantitative methods, such as automated text analysis, computational linguistics, machine learning, network analysis, and AI-supported visual methods among others.
Main Topics:
- Research design (including questions about ontology and epistemology)
- Data sources and collection (e.g., crawlers, post-API approaches, and sampling concerns)
- Validity and reliability of research constructs
- Statistical analysis, algorithms, evolving standards and interpretability of results
- Publishing (including questions about pushbacks by reviewers and editors)
- Research ethics (including questions about informed consent and anonymity)
Application
Please send an expression of interest to elanor.colleoni@iulm.it by Jan 31st, 2024 and include an extended abstract (2-5 pages) if you wish to present your work (e.g., early-stage to R&R). Acceptance will be notifi ed by February 14th. The final program will be distributed by March 7th.
