Ort:

Thema:
“Linguistic data exploration for inclusive digital societies”
Abstract:
In recent years, social change has been accompanied by digitalization and thus more visibility for social diversity with all dimensions and inclusion. Recent studies in computer-mediated communication and human-centered data science on diversity and inclusion examines diversity-related digital communication (Fábián & Trost 2023, Fábián & Trost 2024, Fábián et al. 2024) by using corpus linguistic research methods for revealing diversity specific linguistic characteristics. In this tradition, this presentation highlights the communicative reproduction of disability and inclusion in computer-mediated communication. In this corpus linguistic study, collocations, n-grams and word clouds in social media corpora will be highlighted with the aim of relevant factors for inclusion. In addition, I explain how digital corpus exploration from Corpus Linguistics supports data-based work for the empowerment of disability-related diversity and strengthens the legal implementation of inclusion in the sense of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The study illustrates the benefits of digital corpus linguistics and human-centered data science for interdisciplinary research on inclusion in digital societies, alongside with sociology, law and communication studies and the transfer of these disciplines for social benefits.
