Publications

My co-edited volume, Research Methods for the Digital Humanities, was released on November 23, 2018 from Palgrave Macmillan. My contribution to this volume is the chapter “Creating an Influencer-Relationship Model to Locate Actors in Environmental Communication” and I co-authored the introduction as well as serving as an editor.

My chapter discusses the method used to create influencer-relationship models from a collection of over 4,000 newspaper articles. The software used for this chapter can be found on my gitbub page (though the method is now wildly out of date!)
