00:00:00.700 --> 00:00:16.000
So, welcome everybody. Okay, we have only two, two encounters left, and we have a lot to talk about.
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:29.950
So today, I will have a bit longer explanation. I asked you to bring your headphones, but I don't
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:00:29.950 --> 00:00:40.900
think we will have time to do some activity today. So we'll do that next time. Today is I
00:00:40.900 --> 00:00:49.600
think it's an important lecture, because so far we have been talking about basically the
00:00:49.600 --> 00:01:00.099
methods of data collection. We have slowly started to get an idea of how you can analyze
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:01:00.099 --> 00:01:01.650
the data.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:01:01.650 --> 00:01:13.700
But today I would like to give you three concrete examples of how
00:01:13.700 --> 00:01:25.000
you can turn the strategies that I showed you in the video lecture into concrete analysis,
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:32.300
procedures of analysis. Of course, as I say,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:01:32.300 --> 00:01:41.600
there are hundreds of different variations of the methods of analysis.
00:01:41.600 --> 00:01:53.700
What I will talk about today is three simple example, things that you could
00:01:53.700 --> 00:02:02.350
concretely use in your empirical work, let's say three of the
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:02:02.350 --> 00:02:11.200
the main families so to speak of methods.
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:36.300
So, well, this is the idea for today. You actually already
00:02:36.300 --> 00:02:44.800
started to try a little bit of the first type, thematic content analysis, which is very used and
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:55.650
which is somehow in between qualitative and quantitative methods. Indeed, it is often used
00:02:55.650 --> 00:02:56.800
in mixed method strategies.
00:03:12.450 --> 00:03:21.800
The theamtic content analysis is also used when you have large amount
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:31.400
of data because in a certain sense, it's a bit faster. The second one is discourse analysis.
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:40.100
Actually to be more precise, I will give you an example of conversational analysis, which is instead
00:03:40.100 --> 00:03:42.700
something that works at the more micro-genetic level.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
00:03:42.700 --> 00:03:52.400
Micro-genetic means that you can observe the construction of meaning in the moment, in
00:03:52.400 --> 00:04:00.200
which this meaning is emerging in as, as the words, a conversation analysis, it emerges in
00:04:00.200 --> 00:04:07.300
conversation. The third example is an example of visual analysis. So how you can combine the
00:04:07.300 --> 00:04:12.550
analysis of images, photograph with also the analysis of text.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:04:12.550 --> 00:04:26.700
And also more or less, these three kind of analysis correspond to the three types of strategies that
00:04:26.700 --> 00:04:38.200
I mentioned. So kind of more categorial analysis, kind of more interpretive analysis or more
00:04:38.200 --> 00:04:42.850
multimodal analysis strategy. Okay, let's start with
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:04:42.850 --> 00:04:47.700
the content analysis.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:04:48.100 --> 00:04:57.000
I try to make it as simple as possible. So for each way I give you the main
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:03.100
steps that you have to follow. The first one is in the case of content analysis, very
00:05:03.100 --> 00:05:10.700
important. Do you remember the difference between unit of analysis and unit of observation, right?
00:05:10.700 --> 00:05:18.100
In this case, when we start to analyze a text, the content of the text,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:05:18.100 --> 00:05:25.200
first of all we have to make a choice, which is what which is our unit of observation, in means what
00:05:25.200 --> 00:05:34.100
is the empirical minimal unit that we want to analyze. Again, it depends on your research
00:05:34.100 --> 00:05:41.900
question. So, for instance, imagine that you want to do a document analysis on all
00:05:41.900 --> 00:05:46.400
the books published on disability
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:59.300
In Norwegian. So you will have hundreds of of books. Now, you have to choose which is your
00:05:59.300 --> 00:06:07.200
unit of analysis of observations. It can be the full book. In this case, you will have
00:06:07.200 --> 00:06:16.600
let's say 100 cases. Because for each book, I will categorize something in the book. So if
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:23.500
there are 100 books published in Norwegian, my unit of observation will
00:06:23.500 --> 00:06:25.250
be the book.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:06:25.250 --> 00:06:36.200
But maybe I want to know something even more detailed. So my research question is about, I don't know
00:06:36.200 --> 00:06:46.300
which are the theories used to talk about disability in the books in Norwegian. So in
00:06:46.300 --> 00:06:53.000
this case, I should go deeper into each book instead of saying for instance this book is
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:55.250
talking positively or negatively,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (H?Y)
00:06:55.250 --> 00:07:04.300
I want to go deeper. So my unit of analysis must be smaller and it can be, for instance, the
00:07:04.300 --> 00:07:12.100
sentence within the book, the unit of observation. So instead of having 100 units of
00:07:12.100 --> 00:07:19.200
observation immediately my unit of observation will be much more because in one single book you
00:07:19.200 --> 00:07:25.200
can have thousands and thousands of sentences, right? So again,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:07:25.200 --> 00:07:32.000
the unit that you decide to observe, depends on your research question. But usually, you don't have
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:39.400
so many texts, so many documents. So let's imagine that we want to analyze ten
00:07:39.400 --> 00:07:48.500
interviews. So in that case, you can choose for instance to observe, to categorize the single
00:07:48.500 --> 00:07:55.000
words. Because for instance my research question is about how many times people
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)
00:07:55.000 --> 00:08:02.600
use the word ''disability'' when they talk for instance? So I'm going to look how many times
00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:11.000
people will use that word. So my unit of observation is the word. If instead my research question
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:22.100
is how people talk about disability. Well, then I need to have kind of larger unit of observation.
00:08:22.100 --> 00:08:25.150
So I will divide the interview into
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 78% (H?Y)
00:08:25.150 --> 00:08:35.700
chunks, into bites of meaning for instance, or into sentences. So once you have made
00:08:35.700 --> 00:08:43.400
this choice, you can start observing your data. And the first thing is, of course, always
00:08:43.400 --> 00:08:45.400
transcription.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:08:45.400 --> 00:08:53.500
We will talk about this in the next in the last lecture. But transcribing is very boring, is very
00:08:53.500 --> 00:09:00.100
long, takes a lot of time. But it's always part of your analysis, because by transcribing
00:09:00.100 --> 00:09:07.700
your data your, your texts, your interviews, your observations, you get familiar with them and you
00:09:07.700 --> 00:09:15.200
start to think about them and you start to come out with some ideas about how to categorize.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (H?Y)
00:09:15.800 --> 00:09:22.800
So the the second step is transcription and you can start building the code book. You remember, I
00:09:22.800 --> 00:09:28.350
mentioned this, I will show you how to do this.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:09:28.350 --> 00:09:39.050
Then you can actually start coding. Once you have completed the coding, you will have your interview
00:09:39.050 --> 00:09:50.200
categorized with the themes that you have chosen. And you can start combining the see the themes and
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:56.800
starting to create a hypothesis to interpret the text. A concrete example,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:09:56.800 --> 00:10:06.100
this is an example of coding. It's actually what you already did last time. What we have
00:10:06.100 --> 00:10:13.900
here? I hope that from home you can see the slides changing, right? It's fine.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:10:14.300 --> 00:10:22.400
So what do you basically do? Exactly what you did last time. So you have
00:10:22.400 --> 00:10:23.700
an interview,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:10:23.700 --> 00:10:35.200
you have some codes that look like the one below and these codes. Some of these codes can be already
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:45.600
there because my research question or because the theory I'm using already giving me some suggestions
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:53.700
about coding. Okay. So in this case, let's say that this is an interview about my
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:10:53.700 --> 00:10:58.100
representation of climate change.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:10:58.500 --> 00:11:08.000
So for instance, my theory already tells me some aspect are relevant, like
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:19.900
how I look for information or how I trust science or not, what is my attitude or feeling toward
00:11:19.900 --> 00:11:25.000
climate changes... So these are already part of my research question and I can start using these
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:28.450
categories. Some other categories, some other
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:11:28.450 --> 00:11:37.000
coding can instead come directly from the data. You remember the exercise last time. So basically
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:46.900
when you code a text, it looks like this. Even if you are using softwares like Nvivo, unfortunately
00:11:46.900 --> 00:11:53.000
we don't have time to go also into software's. It will take a full course only to teach and view.
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:58.300
Unfortunately, we don't have enough space. Hopefully next year, we can have a
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
00:11:58.300 --> 00:12:07.700
full course of qualitative methods. Basically, what you do is in this case, the unit of
00:12:07.700 --> 00:12:15.700
observation, as you can see, is not a sentence but is a unit of meaning. So unit of meaning means a
00:12:15.700 --> 00:12:21.900
combination of words that have a complete meaning.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (H?Y)
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:31.700
So you see here I'm using different colors to make the different codes more visible,
00:12:31.700 --> 00:12:40.500
so it's easier for me and for other people that are helping me encoding to get immediately the
00:12:40.500 --> 00:12:48.300
hint of how the coding going. So this is the exercise of coding is exactly what you
00:12:48.300 --> 00:12:50.300
have done last week.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:12:50.700 --> 00:12:56.050
Once I have completed the coding of my data,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:12:56.050 --> 00:12:58.800
I can start.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 74% (MEDIUM)
00:12:59.100 --> 00:13:09.700
I have an overview of what codes I have in my data or how I have coded my data. And I can
00:13:09.700 --> 00:13:17.300
start think about this codes. So for instance, I have
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:13:17.300 --> 00:13:19.550
some codes
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:13:19.550 --> 00:13:32.000
that are similar for the content or for the idea they bring. I will group them
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:40.600
together in a larger category. So in this case, for instance, you see uncertainty was a category
00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:49.800
that I created from theory. Then probably into the interviews someone said, oh we show to
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:13:49.800 --> 00:13:56.200
to the experts. Oh, I have created here a concept which is interesting for me. So I create
00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:04.200
a new code that emerges from the data but which is somehow related to first one. So from one from
00:14:04.200 --> 00:14:12.500
the lower category, the categories that are closer to the data I can create a bit more general and
00:14:12.500 --> 00:14:19.700
abstract categories that guide me into the interpretation. What is very important is that?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:14:19.700 --> 00:14:29.700
This is an ongoing process. So I start with the first round of coding. Okay, then I look at my codes
00:14:29.700 --> 00:14:40.900
and see how they create some patterns or some similarities. Then I go back to the data with this
00:14:40.900 --> 00:14:48.400
code and see if I'm really satisfied with it, so I can continuously organize and reorganize my
00:14:48.400 --> 00:14:50.000
coding, my categories
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:58.450
in relationship with the data. So it's an it's an ongoing interpretive process.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (H?Y)
00:14:58.450 --> 00:15:08.700
The ideal condition is that you do this activity with more than one person. Why? Because more
00:15:08.700 --> 00:15:17.900
different eyes on the same data and using the same category, give you a better reliability on your
00:15:17.900 --> 00:15:25.700
analysis. So if I do it only myself, of course, it's more subjective. If two people code the
00:15:25.700 --> 00:15:28.700
same data and they agree on the same categories,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:15:28.700 --> 00:15:37.100
it's less subjective. If three people agree independently coding
00:15:37.100 --> 00:15:45.800
independently on the same data it means that probably my structure, my system of categories
00:15:45.800 --> 00:15:51.250
are actually reliable, more reliable.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:15:51.250 --> 00:15:59.900
But what is important is that this is an interpretive circular process. So at the end you
00:15:59.900 --> 00:16:10.200
will have a list of categories you will have, if you want you will can also have a matrix of
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:19.500
frequencies, so how many times this category appear in the text I'm analyzing.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:28.700
Basically, you use content analysis to interpret the text but as you will end up also with a
00:16:28.700 --> 00:16:36.100
matrix of frequencies. Of course, you can perform also some descriptive statistics on it. And this
00:16:36.100 --> 00:16:45.700
is what is usually done in content analysis. So, on one hand, I describe the content of my text
00:16:45.700 --> 00:16:50.800
through descriptive statistics, like for instance which
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:16:50.800 --> 00:17:01.100
are the most frequent combination of categories. And then I also perform an interpretive analysis. So
00:17:01.100 --> 00:17:10.500
these two things together, this kind of very basic mixed method approach gives you a better validity.
00:17:10.500 --> 00:17:16.700
But again, this depends on depends on the theory that you are using in analyzing
00:17:16.700 --> 00:17:20.800
your data and depends on your research question, clear?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:17:20.800 --> 00:17:29.050
Once I have this, well, I can start making some kind of reflection about my analysis.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:17:29.050 --> 00:17:38.800
So let's imagine that here, I have coded. I have created these more general categories, grouping
00:17:38.800 --> 00:17:47.400
some teams. Okay, one category as we have seen is uncertainty. Another group of teams somehow point
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:49.700
to the concept of fear.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:17:49.800 --> 00:18:00.050
So what I have witnessed, can start to to think about here is that associated to the people
00:18:00.050 --> 00:18:06.850
discourse about climate change, there are some kind of negative emotions. So people express
00:18:06.850 --> 00:18:09.200
uncertainty and fear.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:18:09.200 --> 00:18:18.300
So I can create a higher level more general category that I can call for instance negative
00:18:18.300 --> 00:18:26.350
emotions. So you see how you go from the concrete data, more and more to abstract concepts
00:18:26.350 --> 00:18:27.800
Okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:18:27.800 --> 00:18:34.650
that leads you to kind of starting to have a theory about the the phenomenon.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
00:18:34.650 --> 00:18:41.900
On the other side, I have another groups of categories that talks about distrust in scientists,
00:18:41.900 --> 00:18:52.200
distrust in the media. But also the fact that people mention that the information is wrong,
00:18:52.200 --> 00:19:00.200
they actually mention wrong information, about climate change. So, here I
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:04.800
start to have another group of teams that goes together.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:19:04.800 --> 00:19:10.500
In a certain sense here, for instance I can start thinking, ''Oh, so there is something that has to
00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:20.100
do with how people get information. Oh, there is another more abstract team. '' Okay. So on one hand, I
00:19:20.100 --> 00:19:26.700
have people negative emotion, experiencing negative and talking about negative emotions about
00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:33.700
climate change. On the other hand I have a group of teams that telling me something
00:19:33.700 --> 00:19:34.550
about
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:19:34.550 --> 00:19:42.600
problems with information, where people get information. So you see that some pattern is
00:19:42.600 --> 00:19:49.949
emerging that leads me to a certain interpretation of people discourse. So that's how you go from
00:19:49.949 --> 00:19:59.100
the coding of empirical material, of the empirical text to step by step to the construction of a
00:19:59.100 --> 00:20:04.500
theory. Okay, so that's the very, very basic
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:20:04.600 --> 00:20:11.600
process of content analysis. No matter if you do with interviews, no matter if you do with
00:20:11.600 --> 00:20:19.300
documents, as we'll see you can also do this with images.
00:20:22.700 --> 00:20:25.900
Any question about this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:32.900
With this information, you will be able when you read, for instance an article about content
00:20:32.900 --> 00:20:40.700
analysis, know better which you know slightly different approach they use, you will be able to
00:20:40.700 --> 00:20:45.500
understand what they are doing. Okay, so that's the idea.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:20:45.500 --> 00:21:21.000
*student asking question about mixed methods*
00:21:21.100 --> 00:21:26.700
Mixed methods. Okay. There was a chapter.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 69% (MEDIUM)
00:21:26.700 --> 00:21:34.800
Yeah, there was a chapter on that. Very briefly, I actually am not repeating
00:21:34.800 --> 00:21:42.900
what should be already in the chapters, but very briefly as you know, the big distinction
00:21:42.900 --> 00:21:47.700
is about qualitative and quantitative methods, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:21:49.600 --> 00:21:56.500
They are somehow complementary because you they answer different questions.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:21:56.500 --> 00:22:06.450
But of course, sometimes you want to try to have a more complete picture. Okay, so you can combine
00:22:06.450 --> 00:22:08.700
different methods.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:22:08.700 --> 00:22:24.450
And this is what we call mixed methods. For instance. Let's say that you want to investigate people,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:22:24.450 --> 00:22:36.900
representation of University. First of all, I need a starting point. So I
00:22:36.900 --> 00:22:46.800
need to to understand what are the main aspects of people representation of University.
00:22:46.800 --> 00:22:51.300
So what I do, I just choose some
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:22:51.300 --> 00:22:58.350
average representative types of people, and I interview them.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:22:58.350 --> 00:23:04.950
From this interview, for instance I can apply content analysis and I start having for instance,
00:23:04.950 --> 00:23:15.100
the main themes or the main aspects of how people think about University. Let's imagine
00:23:15.100 --> 00:23:27.100
that I have interviewed 10 University students, 10 parents of University students and 10 very high
00:23:27.100 --> 00:23:29.000
income professionals.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:37.100
So you have three different social categories and they will bring different dimensions or maybe
00:23:37.100 --> 00:23:46.199
they can have a similar representation of the University, what is a university. Okay, from these
00:23:46.199 --> 00:23:52.200
data from this first analysis, which is qualitative tells me something about people how people
00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:57.500
make meaning of the University. I can build internet survey.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:23:57.500 --> 00:24:06.000
So I built an internet questionnaire and I apply this questioner to a representative sample of
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:15.000
Norwegian population to see for instance, whether these categories work or not or how
00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:24.700
people answer to questions about these categories. So, you see here, I have one use of qualitative
00:24:24.700 --> 00:24:27.650
method, which is to build a
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:24:27.650 --> 00:24:36.000
theory or build some hypotheses. And then, I use a quantitative instrument, like a survey on a
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:43.400
representative sample to for instance test my hypothesis. This is one example of how using
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:49.800
mixed methods. Okay. Is it clear? *student acknowledges*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:24:52.900 --> 00:24:56.350
Any other question about this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
00:24:56.350 --> 00:25:00.150
Actaully ou can also do exactly the opposite.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:25:00.150 --> 00:25:10.000
You start from a survey, that's what I usually prefer, because it is said that
00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:18.700
qualitative research is to explore and quantitative research is to confirm a hypothesis. Sometimes
00:25:18.700 --> 00:25:21.150
I think is exactly the opposite.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:25:21.150 --> 00:25:29.800
When you collect kind of large amount of data, this gives you a kind of first picture.
00:25:29.800 --> 00:25:39.100
But if you really want to know how things work, how the processes work, then you have to go deep
00:25:39.100 --> 00:25:46.300
with qualitative analysis. So I prefer to say, for instance, that it is quantitative methods that
00:25:46.300 --> 00:25:49.650
are explorative for instance.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:25:49.650 --> 00:26:02.100
An example, my PhD thesis was about extreme right groups and Neo-Nazi groups on the internet.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:26:02.100 --> 00:26:13.500
And it was never been studied, 20 years ago. So, what I did was first,
00:26:13.500 --> 00:26:20.800
I used a quantitative method called social network analysis to map
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:26:20.800 --> 00:26:29.100
the group's, extreme right groups on the internet talking about Nazis for instance on the
00:26:29.100 --> 00:26:38.100
internet. And then I perform a qualitative analysis of this groupS to see how did they for instance
00:26:38.100 --> 00:26:46.600
try to present themselves as no-nazi groups. But actually, if you look at the content,
00:26:46.600 --> 00:26:51.100
hey were definitely extreme right groups. So it's
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:26:51.100 --> 00:26:57.300
kind of the opposite. So you use the quantitative methods to map and the qualitative methods to go
00:26:57.300 --> 00:27:04.500
into the phenomenon. But again, the idea is that the complementarity of two methods, of
00:27:04.500 --> 00:27:08.500
two approaches.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 73% (MEDIUM)
00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:17.200
Let's move to second, conversation analysis.
00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:29.200
This approach can be
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:44.650
mainly used in analyzing interactions, social interactions, micro genetically. So
00:27:44.650 --> 00:27:51.500
the idea is that meaning is not something there, but the meaning is something that emerges is
00:27:51.500 --> 00:27:59.600
constructed during the interaction. So different people interacting in different
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:27:59.600 --> 00:28:08.250
will create different meanings. And this can be used for instance to analyze transcription of
00:28:08.250 --> 00:28:18.200
interviews, transcription of conversations. But also for instance, if I go into a classroom and
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:25.000
record and observe an interaction between teachers and students, I can use
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:29.550
conversation analysis to see what is really happening
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:28:29.550 --> 00:28:37.200
during the interaction. Okay? Beyond the verbal. That's the idea. So you don't only analyze the
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:44.000
verbal, but you also analyze the nonverbal and verbal communication. It can be used
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:51.150
for instance, to analyze a focus group transcription. But basically here,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:28:51.150 --> 00:29:03.750
the idea is that you look at how people do things with speech, with social interaction.
00:29:03.750 --> 00:29:13.900
Because it's when it comes to the social interaction, you are not just sharing information, you are
00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:20.850
doing things, you are trying to convince people, you are can try to force people
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:29:20.850 --> 00:29:29.700
to do something, you can invite people to do something, you can lie to people, you can
00:29:29.700 --> 00:29:37.800
pretend with your words. So here is not transmission of information but is doing things through
00:29:37.800 --> 00:29:43.500
social interaction, okay? And through conversational analysis, you can see this.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:29:43.500 --> 00:29:50.600
So again, how do you do conversational analysis?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 78% (H?Y)
00:29:51.400 --> 00:30:01.449
As you can see here the unit of observation is different, is no longer a word or a sentence,
00:30:01.449 --> 00:30:12.200
but is called a conversational turn. It means a turn, it is assumed that when we have a
00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:19.600
conversation, I speak you speak, I speak you speak. Okay, that's a dialogue. Otherwise, it's a
00:30:19.600 --> 00:30:21.200
monologue.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:35.500
Like the one I'm doing here. So here, the idea is that the minimum unit you have to observe is
00:30:35.500 --> 00:30:45.350
a turn. So, it means of talk from one person to another. By the way,
00:30:45.350 --> 00:30:47.699
practical suggestion;
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:30:47.699 --> 00:30:54.900
Probably some of you will have --of course, we will talk about this tomorrow--
00:30:54.900 --> 00:31:03.200
just a small anticipation, some of you that will maybe analyze interviews for instance when you write
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:10.300
your thesis you have to show some examples of an interview for instance.
00:31:10.300 --> 00:31:18.050
It is a very good practice when you talk about interviews, always to present the question
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:31:18.050 --> 00:31:24.500
and the answer. Not only the answer because it can make a very big difference in the
00:31:24.500 --> 00:31:27.050
interpretation of the data
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)
00:31:27.050 --> 00:31:36.100
the kind of answer that their interviewer is asking. So remember try always to present
00:31:36.100 --> 00:31:41.500
the question and the answer together, okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:31:41.500 --> 00:31:50.200
So, again, how do we do a conversational analysis? Actually, you are missing a piece that we will
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:55.800
have tomorrow, which is the transcription. And in the case of conversational analysis it's a
00:31:55.800 --> 00:32:05.600
special kind of transcription. Why? Because it is not only about what people say, but here what is
00:32:05.600 --> 00:32:09.750
important is how people say things.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:32:09.750 --> 00:32:20.200
You need also to transcribe some nonverbal information. And again, there are
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:29.850
different degrees. So you there can be a very complex transcription in which you really transcribe
00:32:29.850 --> 00:32:37.400
every aspect of the nonverbal communication. And some, we will work with the simplified version of
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:39.800
the transcription, when you give only some
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:32:39.800 --> 00:32:48.300
information. Then in this case what you perform is a really micro genetical
00:32:48.300 --> 00:32:57.700
analysis of the conversation. So you look line by line in this interaction what is happening beyond
00:32:57.700 --> 00:32:59.100
the words.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:32:59.100 --> 00:33:09.800
You analyze the words and what is beyond the words so to speak. Then how I interpret this
00:33:09.800 --> 00:33:19.800
data? In this case it's a bit more interpretive. It means somehow you as the researcher,
00:33:19.800 --> 00:33:27.400
you provide an interpretation of what's happening there. But remember you always support your
00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:29.500
interpretation with the data.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:33:29.500 --> 00:33:37.050
You cannot say just ''Oh, I think that during this conversation, the teacher is doing some kind of
00:33:37.050 --> 00:33:44.400
passive-aggressive thing to the student.'' You cannot just say that, you have to show exactly where in
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:52.000
the transcription this happens. Okay, so that's how you analyze.
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:59.000
And of course, you look at some special aspect in the conversation
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:06.750
depending again of your research question. This is an example of conversational analysis. Okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:34:06.750 --> 00:34:10.150
So, how do you read this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:34:10.150 --> 00:34:20.199
We will see tomorrow, the transcription is made line by line. So, every line has a number.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:34:20.199 --> 00:34:30.300
Why? Because it's easier to find the lines. So when you see every line, every number is a line
00:34:30.300 --> 00:34:36.900
of transcription. Okay, so it's not time, it's just numbers to the lines to make
00:34:36.900 --> 00:34:43.000
it easier to find them. So now you see there some words,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 78% (H?Y)
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:53.800
but you also see some strange signs in the words, right? How do you read this? So you see B
00:34:53.800 --> 00:35:03.000
and A are the two people interacting. So B means is B speaking and down a turn means now it's the
00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:06.200
turn of A to speak. Okay?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:35:06.200 --> 00:35:17.850
So, how do you read this transcription? ''Where is she? She was absolutely soaked because with the
00:35:17.850 --> 00:35:23.600
closer the door, which we don't usually do, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:35:23.600 --> 00:35:32.600
And he normally runs into the garage. Does he? Yessss, of course in the garage. ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:35:33.200 --> 00:35:41.900
So you see, the signs actually tells you something about the speed, the poses.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:50.800
When you see for instance the parentheses, like here, it means that there is one second pause.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)
00:35:50.900 --> 00:36:00.100
Why it is important? It is important because one second pause in a
00:36:00.100 --> 00:36:02.850
conversation is a lot
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:36:02.850 --> 00:36:06.600
unless you come from some culture
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:36:08.400 --> 00:36:11.850
in which,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:36:11.850 --> 00:36:19.700
speaking is very slow and there are a lot of silences. But for instance in my culture, one second of
00:36:19.700 --> 00:36:25.450
pause is really a lot so you say oh something is really happening there.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:36:25.450 --> 00:36:33.600
So, how do you analyze this is like 2 seconds or 3 seconds of interaction? And there is
00:36:33.600 --> 00:36:39.700
already a lot going on here, how do you analyze this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:49.050
First of all, you look as we say the minimal unique of observation is turns. Okay. So first
00:36:49.050 --> 00:37:01.250
of all, you look at how people share turn-taking. Why? Because in a conversation for instance, the way
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:37:01.250 --> 00:37:03.900
we give
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:37:03.900 --> 00:37:13.450
the word, the speech or we take the speech from another person tells something about our power.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
00:37:13.450 --> 00:37:21.400
What do you learn when you are a kid in a lot of cultures? Never interrupt the adults.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:37:21.600 --> 00:37:31.000
Why? Because they are more powerful. So a child who is interacting an adult is not an educated
00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:34.950
child or has something wrong.
NOTE

*student asking question about why 1 second pause is considered long*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:38:16.900 --> 00:38:21.850
It's the same person, you see there is no B.
00:38:28.300 --> 00:38:35.100
Yeah, yeah. Okay. Sorry, I have to repeat for them. Okay, so she's saying ''but one second
00:38:35.100 --> 00:38:43.950
pause is not that long. '' That's one second pose, what I just did is 1 second pause. This is a pause.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:38:43.950 --> 00:38:51.800
So it tells you something. If we think about one second, it looks not
00:38:51.800 --> 00:39:00.400
very much. You did actually one second pause while talking. Why? Because you were looking for a word.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 57% (MEDIUM)
00:39:09.100 --> 00:39:11.800
*student eleborates question*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:29.300
Exactly. I repeat. Yes, you say, 1 second is not that much, maybe two seconds will
00:39:29.300 --> 00:39:37.700
be a bit longer, maybe because this person is giving some space to the other person to say
00:39:37.700 --> 00:39:42.800
something. That's exactly the kind of analysis you do.
00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:49.300
When it comes to turn taking,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:39:49.300 --> 00:39:56.200
turn taking means also that for instance I can give space to the other person to say something. So I'm
00:39:56.200 --> 00:39:58.500
giving you the turn.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:06.400
Exactly. That's a correct interpretation. So what happens if in one second or in two second, the other
00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:09.000
person is not taking the turn?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:18.200
There is a rupture in the flow of the normal conversation. So this means that there
00:40:18.200 --> 00:40:20.600
is something going on there.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:40:20.600 --> 00:40:28.600
Now it is to me as a researcher observing the rest of the conversation to understand what is
00:40:28.600 --> 00:40:39.500
going on there. This is exactly the point. So every time you find for instance, an interruption or
00:40:39.500 --> 00:40:48.000
something unusual in the turn-taking, well there is something going on there.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:40:48.000 --> 00:40:53.100
That is not visible if you only consider the words.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:40:53.100 --> 00:41:02.300
Imaging the opposite example, you are speaking and I enter on your speech. So I overlap to
00:41:02.300 --> 00:41:11.700
your speech. That's another violation, of course. So it's a violation of the turn
00:41:11.700 --> 00:41:20.350
taking and it's telling me something about this. What can it be?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:41:20.350 --> 00:41:27.500
I should check with the rest of the conversation. It can be for instance, that I am so happy that I
00:41:27.500 --> 00:41:36.900
just jump in. Okay? It can be that I want to take your turn. So I want to interrupt you. So it's an
00:41:36.900 --> 00:41:47.200
action. Sometimes it can be felt as an action of violence by someone as an aggression. It
00:41:47.200 --> 00:41:50.649
can be a form of aggression. So you see ,by simply looking
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:41:50.649 --> 00:41:58.399
at the turn-taking you already get a lot of information.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:41:58.399 --> 00:42:04.500
I answered your question? Okay, so you see it was not really a stupid question, very important
00:42:04.500 --> 00:42:05.850
actually.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:42:05.850 --> 00:42:11.600
So let's go now to another important thing, silences.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:42:11.600 --> 00:42:19.900
This is the thing I struggle the most here in Oslo, how to learn to manage silences. Because
00:42:19.900 --> 00:42:25.900
again, silences speak a lot. Silence speak a lot.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:34.350
And, of course, the meaning of silence is very difficult to interpret.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:42:34.350 --> 00:42:46.500
It can be a cultural thing for instance. I just, you know, wait a lot before speaking because in my
00:42:46.500 --> 00:42:55.300
culture being reflective is a very important value. So, I never speak like this. First I think,
00:42:55.300 --> 00:42:57.000
than I speak.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:42:57.700 --> 00:43:01.900
My silence can be a refusal,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:43:02.900 --> 00:43:13.200
I don't legitimize you. Now, imagine a teacher who has to interpret the silence of a student.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
00:43:13.200 --> 00:43:18.000
How this teacher will interpret this silence?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:43:19.500 --> 00:43:26.400
In conversational analysis, the pauses and the silences are very very important to
00:43:26.400 --> 00:43:28.400
interpret. Okay?
00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:47.300
For instance, another important example of what you can analyze are the so-called repairs or
00:43:47.300 --> 00:43:57.700
reparations. Again, the conversational analysis is about there are some rules when we have social
00:43:57.700 --> 00:44:00.050
interaction, okay?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:44:00.050 --> 00:44:09.950
Every time we violate one of these rules, there is something interesting or meaningful happening.
00:44:09.950 --> 00:44:26.200
An example of violation is turn from 10 to 12. Why? If you read this
00:44:26.200 --> 00:44:30.200
part it's like '' normally ruins into
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:44:30.200 --> 00:44:33.000
the garage, does he? ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:44:33.600 --> 00:44:47.700
You see the B in line 11 is not answering ''yes'' the two points, repeated,
00:44:47.700 --> 00:44:55.700
two points mean that the sounds is just continuing, so B is saying ''yess... ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:44:55.700 --> 00:44:57.500
Okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:44:57.500 --> 00:45:01.100
Why this is a violation?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 78% (H?Y)
00:45:06.400 --> 00:45:13.200
Because A is actually asking a rhetorical question. He is not asking
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:45:13.200 --> 00:45:17.450
''Does she really ruins into the garage? ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:45:17.450 --> 00:45:25.900
What he's asking is '' I'm telling this and you have to agree. Does he? Of course we both know the
00:45:25.900 --> 00:45:36.400
answer is yes. '' So if the expectation of the other is that I agree with him and I say ''yess..''
00:45:36.400 --> 00:45:38.850
it means that I disagreeing.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:45:38.850 --> 00:45:50.600
So and B realizes immediately this in turn 12. So what is she doing?
00:45:50.600 --> 00:46:02.000
She is, you see the arrow, say that in that point she speaking faster. ''So yess... Of course ''
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:09.400
So this is a reparation. She realizes that she has somehow not met the expectation of
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:14.500
A in the rhetorical question and she's doing a reparation.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 70% (MEDIUM)
00:46:14.500 --> 00:46:23.600
She somehow restoring the expectation in the social interaction. Okay, so you see how in one single
00:46:23.600 --> 00:46:29.000
line of conversation in one single turn-taking, there is a lot going on.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:46:29.100 --> 00:46:38.450
So this is the conversational analysis and sometimes this is very very helpful because again,
00:46:38.450 --> 00:46:47.400
there are two levels. Okay, people say something but mean something else. And this is the basis of
00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:56.000
social interactions. Imagine a world in which everybody was exactly saying what they mean.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:46:56.000 --> 00:47:04.200
You know, society will broke down in second. If you always tell the truth
00:47:04.200 --> 00:47:14.400
there will be no social life. And second because we do not only pass information with words, but
00:47:14.400 --> 00:47:21.800
we do things. So you see here there is one person who is giving me something, is
00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:26.600
giving me the space to answer, and I can accept or refuse to answer.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:47:26.600 --> 00:47:35.900
In another turn this person is asking me to agree with in turn 10 is asking me to agree with
00:47:35.900 --> 00:47:39.400
him and I don't really agree.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:46.800
Okay, so you see how they are doing something with words. So that's the the the conversational
00:47:46.800 --> 00:48:00.700
analysis. And I think we can have a break now. So we have let's say
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
00:48:01.100 --> 00:48:10.800
10 minutes break so we can maybe finish a bit also earlier. So, see you at 11:15, okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
00:48:12.900 --> 00:48:29.400
So well, we start again. I have a couple of super, super interesting questions on the chat. So let
00:48:29.400 --> 00:48:37.300
me just briefly answer these questions. So the first one is: '' Does this mean that conversational
00:48:37.300 --> 00:48:43.700
analysis should not be used in interviews with people with communication difficulties? They can have
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 71% (MEDIUM)
00:48:43.700 --> 00:48:51.500
natural pauses, a natural turn taking and so on. '' This is super, super, super important. Of course,
00:48:51.500 --> 00:49:00.500
you can use con conversational analysis, but you have to adapt the method for the different kind of
00:49:00.500 --> 00:49:11.500
people you are analyzing. Okay. So you find in literature, a lot of
00:49:11.500 --> 00:49:13.750
examples with, of course
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:49:13.750 --> 00:49:24.300
it depends on the specific communication difficulties. Okay, for instance, last semester I had a
00:49:24.300 --> 00:49:34.700
the brilliant brilliant student from our master who made the study on deaf
00:49:34.700 --> 00:49:44.300
people, that were going to speech therapy. Deaf people who were signing people
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:49:44.300 --> 00:49:53.600
who also had needed to have Rehabilitation speech therapy after some problems. And she used
00:49:53.600 --> 00:50:04.000
both observation and analysis of interviews for instance. In that case it was a very complex
00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:12.000
communication situation. Nevertheless, you can do that also there, why? Because, as I said the
00:50:12.000 --> 00:50:22.250
rules of conversation, for instance, based on
00:50:22.250 --> 00:50:37.500
some rules and in part they are cultural, of course. So for instance, depending on a communication
00:50:37.500 --> 00:50:43.950
difficulties that you have also for instance sign language has
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)
00:50:43.950 --> 00:50:52.100
conversational rules. But of course, they are different from verbal from speech conversation. When
00:50:52.100 --> 00:50:57.700
it comes to people instead with other kind of communication difficulties. So for instance, the
00:50:57.700 --> 00:51:05.500
communication difficulties associated with autistic Spectrum for instance, these are
00:51:05.500 --> 00:51:11.400
different communication difficulties. So you will adapt a different ways to do that, but you can do
00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:14.400
that anyway, okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 71% (MEDIUM)
00:51:14.400 --> 00:51:20.300
When you interact with people that have the communication difficulties, of course you have to
00:51:20.300 --> 00:51:26.200
adapt your interaction, even if youu are testing these people, you need to adapt your
00:51:26.200 --> 00:51:33.100
technique. Okay, what about facial expression, body language? Are they included in this type of
00:51:33.100 --> 00:51:39.900
analysis? Another very important question. Of course, again, it depends on your research questions.
00:51:39.900 --> 00:51:44.350
The conversational analysis is used a lot in
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
00:51:44.350 --> 00:51:51.700
Ethnomethodology for instance. Okay, well in ethnomethodology, you can video record. And if
00:51:51.700 --> 00:52:01.649
your research question includes also the non verbal aspect --you remember in the observation
00:52:01.649 --> 00:52:10.700
exercise, you can observe also the gaze, the gestures... -- of course, you can do
00:52:10.700 --> 00:52:14.350
conversational analysis also with these aspects, but it depends
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:52:14.350 --> 00:52:21.950
on your research question and of course, it depends on how you collect the data. If you only record
00:52:21.950 --> 00:52:27.900
the audio, you can have only some aspects of nonverbal, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:52:29.100 --> 00:52:35.900
So yeah, thank you very much. This questions are
00:52:35.900 --> 00:52:47.700
very, very important. Now the last type of analysis, the visual or multi-modal analysis. Why
00:52:47.700 --> 00:52:54.100
multimodal? In the certain sense also the conversational analysis can be multimodal,
00:52:54.100 --> 00:52:56.150
for instance if I consider
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:52:56.150 --> 00:53:08.100
not only the verbal and voice channel...
00:53:08.100 --> 00:53:15.600
I consider also for instance, the visual channel. Okay, it becomes
00:53:15.600 --> 00:53:17.000
multimodal.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:53:17.000 --> 00:53:24.450
Here, I give you some example instead of how you work with visual data.
00:53:28.600 --> 00:53:38.600
As you remember from the chapter usually you can have three different types of images you
00:53:38.600 --> 00:53:46.400
work with. The images generated by the researcher. So when you do data collection, you can produce
00:53:46.400 --> 00:53:53.400
images. For instance when you video record or when you video recorded observation, I as a
00:53:53.400 --> 00:53:56.600
researcher, I can take pictures
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:53:56.600 --> 00:54:04.450
of something. And this is my personally generated kind of data.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:54:04.450 --> 00:54:15.200
There can be data generated by the participant, for instance photovoice method. We ask to
00:54:15.200 --> 00:54:23.649
participants to take pictures. Also the body mapping. What is the body map? If not an image
00:54:23.649 --> 00:54:28.899
generated by the participant that you can analyze visually as well.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:54:28.899 --> 00:54:37.700
Or there can be pre-existing images. Like for instance, if I want to make an analysis of the
00:54:37.700 --> 00:54:49.000
advertisements about some product or if I want to make an analysis of some kind of TV show or movies
00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:55.200
or an analysis of paintings. These are all pre-existing images.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:54:55.200 --> 00:55:04.700
In this case, the unit of observation is always the whole image. Why? Why this is important? Because
00:55:04.700 --> 00:55:19.500
the nature of the visual is to be a totality. The meaning of
00:55:19.500 --> 00:55:21.050
image
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (H?Y)
00:55:21.050 --> 00:55:30.500
cannot be reduced to this single elements. I will say that also the meaning of a text
00:55:30.500 --> 00:55:35.500
cannot be reduced to the single words or to the single letters.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
00:55:35.500 --> 00:55:40.900
Right? So we always consider the image as a whole.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:55:40.900 --> 00:55:51.500
Of course, then when it comes to the analyzing images, you can have a bit more strategies
00:55:51.500 --> 00:55:58.800
to analyze it. You can use content analysis, apply content analysis not only two words, but also
00:55:58.800 --> 00:56:10.500
to images and image is a text. You can apply rhetorical analysis. Again, it means to
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:56:10.500 --> 00:56:18.600
understand what is the rhetorical goal or the rhetorical purpose of the image? So what is the
00:56:18.600 --> 00:56:29.200
message and what the image is made for convincing you? So for instance, basically a
00:56:29.200 --> 00:56:37.000
lot of car advertisements, they are based on metaphors,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
00:56:37.000 --> 00:56:46.649
visual metaphors. Why do you think that the advertisement of cars, especially the
00:56:46.649 --> 00:56:55.200
luxury cars, you always see this cars running in a wield nature, or among
00:56:55.200 --> 00:57:03.500
volcanoes or glaciers on a highway, in open space and you see this car running. These
00:57:03.500 --> 00:57:05.850
are metaphorical language.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:57:05.850 --> 00:57:09.050
And the metaphor can be sexual.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
00:57:09.050 --> 00:57:17.500
Why? Because it's mainly addressed to high-income, male, white male usually, or it can be a
00:57:17.500 --> 00:57:26.000
metaphor of freedom and independence. So you see that the if you analyze those images through
00:57:26.000 --> 00:57:32.500
a metaphor, you can understand what is the rhetorical purpose of that message. Again,
00:57:32.500 --> 00:57:38.800
you can use simple content analysis as we did last time with
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:57:38.800 --> 00:57:49.100
diversity image. So what are the teams that are in the image? For instance, make
00:57:49.100 --> 00:58:00.600
an analysis aboutthe channel or the message. Is different to analyze images made for the social
00:58:00.600 --> 00:58:06.800
media and images made for the TV for instance.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:17.950
Usually on visual images or visual data, you do a more interpretive work. Why? Because the images
00:58:17.950 --> 00:58:27.900
are --this is a technical term-- are polysemic. It means that the space for the
00:58:27.900 --> 00:58:35.700
interpretation of the meaning of an image is larger and image can have much more meanings than
00:58:35.700 --> 00:58:36.950
verbal language.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
00:58:36.950 --> 00:58:45.300
Okay, so it's more open to interpretation. But the interpretation is not free, as we can see.
00:58:45.300 --> 00:58:54.300
So how do we analyze? You interpret the visual, but as in the conversation
00:58:54.300 --> 00:59:02.800
analysis, your interpretation should always be supported by your data. So if you say something about
00:59:02.800 --> 00:59:06.900
that image, you must be able to point exactly
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:59:06.900 --> 00:59:13.900
where and how. You cannot just say ''Oh, this makes me think about something. '' You have to show with
00:59:13.900 --> 00:59:22.400
the evidence of your data where and how your claim is justified. So I'll show
00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:28.950
you different example on how to use visual data. It's clear so far?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
00:59:28.950 --> 00:59:42.700
So, one image, this is from a study about human borders that I made in New York. So, okay, you already
00:59:42.700 --> 00:59:49.000
have a big suggestion here, but can you see the image?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
00:59:49.200 --> 00:59:54.100
What can you see in this image?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
00:59:56.800 --> 00:59:59.750
There is something that is.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
00:59:59.750 --> 01:00:07.750
looks kind of... I couldn't find the the original color image. This is the one
01:00:07.750 --> 01:00:14.800

01:00:46.000 --> 01:00:57.600
Okay. Well that's already a lot of analysis. Yeah, in this picture you see two types of human
01:00:57.600 --> 01:00:59.400
borders.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
01:01:00.200 --> 01:01:04.450
Actually three types of your human borders.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:01:04.450 --> 01:01:12.000
Let me give you some context. This is a special part of Manhattan called
01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:13.649
Washington Heights.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
01:01:13.649 --> 01:01:21.700
It's a part of Manhattan in which its kind of is not completely low income because it's Manhattan,
01:01:21.700 --> 01:01:33.900
New York, but it's kind of Latino area. So especially by Dominican people, people from
01:01:33.900 --> 01:01:38.000
Dominican Republic live here. Okay?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:48.500
And this is a border for three reasons. First, street corners are borders.
01:01:48.500 --> 01:01:57.500
For instance, there is an implicit rule that you never stand on a street corner, especially if you are a woman.
01:01:57.700 --> 01:02:03.400
Because if you stand on a street corner, it means something. It means that you are waiting for
01:02:03.400 --> 01:02:06.100
something, or for someone.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:02:06.300 --> 01:02:17.650
Second is, is a border because it is the place where Washington Heights begins.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:02:17.650 --> 01:02:22.250
And you see exactly that from that block
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
01:02:22.250 --> 01:02:32.300
the shop signs start to be in two languages. If you go down that street, that goes directly to
01:02:32.300 --> 01:02:39.300
Central Park, the shops are in English. From this block, they start to
01:02:39.300 --> 01:02:48.550
be in two languages. When you get to the real core of Washington hates, they are only Spanish.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:02:48.550 --> 01:02:56.900
So you can see here the exact moment in which this is changing. And the third border is, you see in
01:02:56.900 --> 01:02:58.950
the middle of the street?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 67% (MEDIUM)
01:02:58.950 --> 01:03:09.100
There are this Hiram things. Why? Because that specific day there was a parade, street parade
01:03:09.100 --> 01:03:16.100
because it was the anniversary of something in the Dominican Republic. So people were
01:03:16.100 --> 01:03:23.649
celebrating something in the Dominican Republic and there was an area of the town that was closed
01:03:23.649 --> 01:03:27.800
for the Dominican people to celebrate this event.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:03:27.800 --> 01:03:37.600
Okay, so you see one single picture, you get all these things happening in
01:03:37.600 --> 01:03:44.400
urban space. So this is one kind of, one type of use of images.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:03:44.400 --> 01:03:47.100
Questions?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:03:47.600 --> 01:03:50.200
Second.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:03:53.500 --> 01:03:56.000
How do you
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
01:03:56.000 --> 01:03:59.000
look at this images?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:08.700
Again, the research question was about borders. The process of how borders regulate
01:04:08.700 --> 01:04:11.100
psychological life.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:04:11.300 --> 01:04:17.500
These are images generated by the researcher.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:04:18.100 --> 01:04:28.800
So what means is these pictures that the researcher took while doing observation in
01:04:28.800 --> 01:04:31.300
different Urban spaces.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
01:04:31.300 --> 01:04:35.800
So here you have three different kinds of borders.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
01:04:38.500 --> 01:04:47.400
One is this one was on the door of a colleague at the university. The sign.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
01:04:48.000 --> 01:04:50.850
And what is telling you?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:04:50.850 --> 01:04:57.350
Is a set of rules of how to interpret my door as a border.
01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:03.100
The second one
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 74% (MEDIUM)
01:05:03.100 --> 01:05:14.000
is a table in Danish University. So back here, you have the table in the corridors, and usually the
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:23.750
tables are for students who work in group. Okay, this one is exactly like any other table
01:05:23.750 --> 01:05:26.300
but has a border.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
01:05:27.600 --> 01:05:36.600
''Staff only'' is a border. It creates a border, it's a sign that creates a border.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
01:05:37.100 --> 01:05:44.600
It's a sign, sign means, you know, every kind of sign. So, in the first case, you have one kind of
01:05:44.600 --> 01:05:54.850
sign, which is the sticker on the door, but the real sign that regulates the behavior, the real border
01:05:54.850 --> 01:06:03.000
is which one? The door or the sign or the combination between the two? So you see the
01:06:03.000 --> 01:06:07.650
door actually in some position, but how you interpret this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
01:06:07.650 --> 01:06:17.200
If you combine with the sticker on the door, they become a sign that is guiding your
01:06:17.200 --> 01:06:26.149
behavior. So you behave, according to that sign. In the case of the table,
01:06:26.149 --> 01:06:33.600
the sign on the table is actually a guiding your behavior. So if you are a student you
01:06:33.600 --> 01:06:35.300
don't sit.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:06:35.400 --> 01:06:37.950
if you are staff,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:06:37.950 --> 01:06:47.200
and here it's interesting, because who is stuff? PhD students? They didn't know where if they
01:06:47.200 --> 01:06:51.100
could see it or not for instance. So every sign is ambivalent.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:06:51.100 --> 01:06:53.900
The third type of sign,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:06:53.900 --> 01:07:01.000
again, regulating the behavior of whom?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:07:08.900 --> 01:07:16.100
This is a bus stop in the north of Denmark in the city center.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:07:16.100 --> 01:07:22.800
So, who do you think somehow will be affected by this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (H?Y)
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:39.200
''Stop Nazi Islamism''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
01:07:42.600 --> 01:07:54.100
It's a of course, is kind of I think election advertisement from Neo-Nazi party, extreme
01:07:54.100 --> 01:08:01.400
right party in Denmark. Who calls there is the Islam, the Muslim people Nazi in rhetorically,
01:08:01.400 --> 01:08:06.900
-- is very interesting rhetorically if you perform a rhetorical analysis very interesting--
01:08:06.900 --> 01:08:13.700
but it's apparently is made for Danish people to vote
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:08:13.700 --> 01:08:22.399
for this extreme right-wing party. So this is a message in that direction, but now
01:08:22.399 --> 01:08:26.799
imagine yourself as a Muslim waiting for the bus.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:08:26.799 --> 01:08:30.850
Would you use that bus stop or not?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:08:30.850 --> 01:08:33.600
And how will you feel?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
01:08:33.600 --> 01:08:43.300
So that sign becomes a border for Muslim person who wants to take the bus there.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
01:08:43.300 --> 01:08:53.000
Okay, so you see how analyzing visual data you have here in this case you have an idea of the
01:08:53.000 --> 01:08:58.300
psychological functioning of borders in everyday life. So that's another kind of analysis you can
01:08:58.300 --> 01:08:59.750
perform.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:08:59.750 --> 01:09:02.700
Another example.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
01:09:03.899 --> 01:09:07.200
This is photovoice.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:09:08.100 --> 01:09:20.100
More in detail. This is a study that I did in Italy with the student and we used
01:09:20.100 --> 01:09:29.700
photovoice to study the sense of the feeling of security and insecurity in the Urban Periphery.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:09:31.000 --> 01:09:39.200
For instancei how do you know when you go from the periphery to the center or from the center to the
01:09:39.200 --> 01:09:48.700
periphery? Imagine yourself walking or going by bus in Oslo? How do you know when you are passing
01:09:48.700 --> 01:09:50.899
into the periphery?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:09:55.900 --> 01:09:58.800
How do you know it?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (H?Y)
01:10:05.200 --> 01:10:10.950
Do you see something for instance? Do you experience something?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:10:10.950 --> 01:10:18.500
You probably will choose a point of reference and say, okay from
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:10:20.300 --> 01:10:24.300
Gamle Oslo is a periphery.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
01:10:30.900 --> 01:10:38.600
What's the Norwegian word for periphery?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:10:41.600 --> 01:10:49.000
Peripheric neighbourhoods, not the city center. Yeah, what's the
01:10:49.000 --> 01:10:56.650
Norwegian word? Suburbs? That would be another English word. Yeah, suburbs.
01:10:56.650 --> 01:11:04.900
Yeah, and usually suburbs are can be associated for instance, in some
01:11:04.900 --> 01:11:12.400
cases to sense of insecurity and safety. So we
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:11:12.400 --> 01:11:18.900
studied this process. Because again, I was interested in understanding how people make sense
01:11:18.900 --> 01:11:28.600
of the sign in the urban space. So very simply, I asked a student I was supervising to
01:11:28.600 --> 01:11:32.950
walk around the town with a recorder and a camera.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
01:11:32.950 --> 01:11:41.000
So she was she was just walking from the city center to the suburbs and every time she was
01:11:41.000 --> 01:11:49.000
experiencing something, she was recording while walking and taking pictures. So what you see here
01:11:49.000 --> 01:11:58.050
is an excerpt of her self recording and the picture that she took in that exact moment.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:11:58.050 --> 01:12:06.900
Okay. So what was the experiment? The experiment was that when she was walking into certain kind of
01:12:06.900 --> 01:12:14.100
streets she started immediately to feel unsafe. Okay. So the idea was, why do you feel
01:12:14.100 --> 01:12:22.200
unsafe? What's there? Is it the people, is it the absence of people, is it the buildings, is it the light?
01:12:22.200 --> 01:12:28.450
You can not really say what it is, but you know that you feel unsafe in that.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 66% (MEDIUM)
01:12:28.450 --> 01:12:35.400
street. So we started study this and this is an example, for instance. She reports that she
01:12:35.400 --> 01:12:46.700
was walking in a neighborhood where she will feel uncomfortable. Because
01:12:46.700 --> 01:12:55.500
she was feeling to be observed by people, and this makes you feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
01:12:56.200 --> 01:12:58.400
Then what happens,
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:12:58.400 --> 01:13:00.450
she sees a church
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:13:00.450 --> 01:13:05.900
in the distance and immediately her feeling changes.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:13:06.300 --> 01:13:14.500
And she was able exactly to take the picture of the moment in which this was happening. Okay. So you
01:13:14.500 --> 01:13:21.750
see how powerful, how much information you get by combining the two modalities? The visual modality
01:13:21.750 --> 01:13:26.250
and the verbal modalities, in this case is a self-report.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:13:26.250 --> 01:13:45.050
Okay. Yeah, last example. So this one is an example of
01:13:45.050 --> 01:13:53.600
participant generated images. Okay. So the first ones were generated by collected,
01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:56.550
by the researcher. This one is produced by
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:13:56.550 --> 01:14:01.700
the participant. This ones are existing images.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:14:02.600 --> 01:14:06.000
Existing images.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:14:07.700 --> 01:14:19.500
This one came from Germany during the Syrian refugee crisis. Do you remember it? Germany was the
01:14:19.500 --> 01:14:28.450
European country that somehow welcomed the highest number of Syrian refugees, right?
01:14:28.450 --> 01:14:37.950
There was a really complex situation there. Okay, so now and these are images taken
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (H?Y)
01:14:37.950 --> 01:14:43.850
in different places where there were refugees.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
01:14:43.850 --> 01:14:52.300
So if you look, analyze these images, what these images tell you?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:14:55.300 --> 01:15:06.900
There is someone who created these images, right? And probably people who were related
01:15:06.900 --> 01:15:13.800
to the hosting of the refugees. Okay. These are three very different kind of images. The first
01:15:13.800 --> 01:15:22.400
one is a poster. The second one is something you find in the bathroom of a camp
01:15:26.500 --> 01:15:36.900
where the refugees were staying, and the third one is flyer, an information flyer for
01:15:36.900 --> 01:15:38.350
refugees.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:15:38.350 --> 01:15:44.500
These three images, what they tell you?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
01:15:44.600 --> 01:15:47.900
How would you interpret them?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 70% (MEDIUM)
01:15:56.300 --> 01:16:04.300
*student talking*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
01:16:04.300 --> 01:16:09.200
So you say that, the idea is
01:16:09.200 --> 01:16:19.700
that they are telling people to not behave in that way but implicitly they say this because
01:16:19.700 --> 01:16:26.049
someone must have behaved in that way before, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (H?Y)
01:16:26.049 --> 01:16:30.549
That's the way you interpret.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 71% (MEDIUM)
01:16:30.549 --> 01:16:44.600
*student talking*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:52.549
Okay, if the sign exists before the refugees, yeah, okay. No, it was not here.
01:16:56.100 --> 01:17:07.500
Again, here we are talking about the sender perspective. So now we are discussing, what
01:17:07.500 --> 01:17:15.100
will be the intention of the person who wrote these messages. Now put yourself in the receiver
01:17:15.100 --> 01:17:20.200
perspective, the person who reads these messages.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 74% (MEDIUM)
01:17:23.800 --> 01:17:48.700
*student talking*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:17:48.700 --> 01:17:51.900
Disturbing, right? *student continues talking*
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 73% (MEDIUM)
01:18:25.900 --> 01:18:35.900
Yeah, so just let me repeat. So, she's saying that from the point of view of the receiver. It can be
01:18:35.900 --> 01:18:42.600
somehow ambivalent because on one hand, you say ''oh, they are welcoming us. '' On the other hand
01:18:42.600 --> 01:18:51.200
you see this message. Somehow disturbing because you think ''so I do these things? ''
01:18:51.200 --> 01:18:52.900
right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:18:53.100 --> 01:19:03.300
Prejudice. Yeah, that's one of the point. Exactly. You see how the image is
01:19:03.300 --> 01:19:12.200
open space for a lot of interpretation. So, of course you cannot rely only on one single image.
01:19:12.200 --> 01:19:21.250
So you have to always consider the whole of images together. Okay. So the first ''refugees are welcome''
01:19:21.250 --> 01:19:22.400
okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:19:22.400 --> 01:19:25.400
And that's the official message.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:19:25.400 --> 01:19:34.400
You remember Angela Merkel say we welcome everyone. Right? So that's the official message. The
01:19:34.400 --> 01:19:42.800
second message, yeah of course it can be related to something that happened. Actually, we are
01:19:42.800 --> 01:19:45.950
not sure.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:19:45.950 --> 01:19:56.700
If you analyze the message in detail, you
01:19:56.700 --> 01:19:58.750
see there are three languages.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:19:58.750 --> 01:20:00.550
Okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:20:00.550 --> 01:20:12.200
So these three languages already select some people. So this is a message to basically arab-speaking
01:20:12.200 --> 01:20:19.200
people. So it is not a general message. So it is assumed that those people may do
01:20:19.200 --> 01:20:20.700
this.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:20:20.900 --> 01:20:26.100
How many people from Syria do you know?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:20:27.300 --> 01:20:30.000
Personally.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (H?Y)
01:20:31.300 --> 01:20:40.500
One? So, you know a lot of people from Syria, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:20:41.300 --> 01:20:47.400
Well, what is your representation of people from Syria?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:20:47.700 --> 01:20:50.700
Of course, not that.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:20:51.200 --> 01:20:58.700
That's exactly how some people in Germany imagine Syrian people.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
01:20:58.900 --> 01:21:09.799
They have no idea what is Syria, right? They imagine this kind of uncivilized people.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:21:09.799 --> 01:21:21.200
But basically, a lot of the people that flew from Syria to Europe, they were middle
01:21:21.200 --> 01:21:28.300
class educated people, because also you need some money to fly to Europe. Otherwise, you just go in
01:21:28.300 --> 01:21:35.800
the countries around Syria if you don't have money, right? So this tells us something, the second
01:21:35.800 --> 01:21:39.650
one is even worse because it's a brochure, is a flyer.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)
01:21:39.650 --> 01:21:48.800
So they assume that, probably, I don't know if they think about Syrian people or Muslim people in
01:21:48.800 --> 01:21:54.500
general, that they hit the women and children.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:21:54.500 --> 01:22:02.800
So put yourself in the shoes of these people. '' What do you think we are? ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
01:22:04.700 --> 01:22:14.350
In Norway, of course, there are abuses in the family, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (H?Y)
01:22:14.350 --> 01:22:23.900
That happens everywhere. Now imagine if I give away brochure, a flyer in Norwegian, in which I
01:22:23.900 --> 01:22:32.750
tell, ''you don't have to slap your wife and your kids'', Norwegian people will be kind of bit upset
01:22:32.750 --> 01:22:36.900
probably to see something like this circulating, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:22:36.900 --> 01:22:40.850
So why instead it's acceptable
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:22:40.850 --> 01:22:47.700
this general message to those people?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (H?Y)
01:22:47.700 --> 01:22:54.700
So you see how this the combination of these images that were circulating at the same time, in the
01:22:54.700 --> 01:23:04.800
same context gives you back a very ambivalent message from both from the point of view of
01:23:04.800 --> 01:23:13.800
the sender and the receiver, but also gives you an idea of the representation that was circulating
01:23:13.800 --> 01:23:18.650
in that moment in Germany about a specific category of people.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (H?Y)
01:23:18.650 --> 01:23:27.800
But if you ask, if you interview someone in Germany who is working with refugees, will never tell
01:23:27.800 --> 01:23:34.200
you all these refugees are these and that, they will tell you ''Oh, we love them, they are wonderful. ''
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:23:34.200 --> 01:23:42.700
Right? So you see how working with images give you access to something beyond words.
01:23:42.700 --> 01:23:50.200
That's the point I would like to stress. So yeah, that was it for today.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:23:50.200 --> 01:23:52.700
Questions?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:23:53.900 --> 01:26:26.300
*student asking question*
01:26:26.300 --> 01:26:49.000
Just to sum up, what you're saying is that this is not necessarily wrong
01:26:49.000 --> 01:26:49.500
because if
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:26:49.500 --> 01:27:00.350
there is somehow a real problem, so these are somehow addressing a real problem it can be
01:27:00.350 --> 01:27:08.200
correct to give or to do something or to do kind of campaigning on informing, educating people to not
01:27:08.200 --> 01:27:16.600
behave in that way, right? Like domestic violence. Of course it is correct.
01:27:16.600 --> 01:27:19.400
In this sense, I agree
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:27:19.400 --> 01:27:24.900
with you. Okay, here there are two points. The first one is;
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:27:25.800 --> 01:27:31.350
how would you address this?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:27:31.350 --> 01:27:42.100
If you had to communicate with Norwegian people would you use the same way
01:27:42.100 --> 01:27:48.300
of communicating or not? Because the way you choose to communicate tells something about your
01:27:48.300 --> 01:27:54.600
representation of the other, right? That's the first point. The second point is there is a very
01:27:54.600 --> 01:28:01.950
interesting question. Okay.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:28:01.950 --> 01:28:13.400
Have you ever been to kind of more exotic country like Japan or Turkey or the Balkans?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:28:14.700 --> 01:28:17.400
Where have you been?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (H?Y)
01:28:18.500 --> 01:28:27.650
Student: I've been to is Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. Luca: Okay, me too. I've been Uzbecistan a long time ago.
01:28:27.650 --> 01:28:40.400
Well, if you ever use toilets there and you haven't found something strange or different and don't
01:28:40.400 --> 01:28:42.400
know how to behave?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:28:42.400 --> 01:28:52.650
It may happen. Let's make it funny. When you go to Japan, toilets have music.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (H?Y)
01:28:52.650 --> 01:29:00.500
They're completely electronic. They have showers inside the toilet. Yeah,
01:29:00.500 --> 01:29:03.450
you can shower yourself. They have music.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (H?Y)
01:29:03.450 --> 01:29:11.650
Because in Japan is considered really rude to hear the noises when you are in in the toilet,
01:29:11.650 --> 01:29:18.150
there is a volume so you can adjust, I'm not joking.
01:29:18.150 --> 01:29:25.000
The sound of waterfall or some birds, or some music. Okay. So imagine you enter
01:29:25.000 --> 01:29:34.250
there and you find this thing with a lot of buttons, like electronic things and say ''What should I do here? ''
01:29:34.250 --> 01:29:40.950
Well, we may find this funny, right?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (H?Y)
01:29:40.950 --> 01:29:50.200
So what's this telling us? It is telling that we are entering in a different cultural contexts,
01:29:50.200 --> 01:29:57.100
not only with different rules, but with different artifacts. Okay, and we can be very
01:29:57.100 --> 01:30:04.850
indulgent with this and say ''excuse me I am new''. So why it is not the opposite here?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:30:04.850 --> 01:30:12.200
Why it's not the opposite here? We assume that the other, he is less civilized, not that the other is
01:30:12.200 --> 01:30:22.000
not familiar with the materials settling of a toilet in our country, for instance. So you see how
01:30:22.000 --> 01:30:28.600
different can be the interpretation of a similar phenomenon. Okay, of course, there is a problem as
01:30:28.600 --> 01:30:34.900
well, because one can feel indifferent difficult situation, but how our
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (H?Y)
01:30:34.900 --> 01:30:43.400
intrepetion of how that person is making meaning is different, and that's the real problem. Okay.
01:30:43.400 --> 01:30:51.000
Of course, domestic violence is a problem in some countries. Domestic abuse are huge problem in some
01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:58.500
countries and we can not even imagine which countries, which are not Turkey, it's Spain and United
01:30:58.500 --> 01:31:03.800
States... That's a huge, huge problem.
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (H?Y)
01:31:04.300 --> 01:31:15.600
Could we do this in the United States without being completely submerged by complaints of being
01:31:15.600 --> 01:31:19.050
racist or something like that? No, so why?
NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (H?Y)
01:31:19.050 --> 01:31:26.900
The problem is that if you are a Syrian refugee, you don't have voice to counter this and say,
01:31:26.900 --> 01:31:35.200
''What do you think I am? '' Okay, so we have to look at all these more General issues of power and
01:31:35.200 --> 01:31:41.400
status in the society, it's not only a matter of solving the problem in that sense. Okay, so that was
01:31:41.400 --> 01:31:49.200
my comment. We are very late. So if you want to go just go. Kine, you have a comment?
01:31:49.200 --> 01:32:26.200
