In this episode of the #aBitOfCCS Podcast, Jana Bernhard-Harrer talks with Larri Miller (she/her, they/them), a PhD candidate in the Department of Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. 

The conversation centres on Larri’s dissertation research, which combines computational analysis grounded in qualitative methods. We discuss their study “Defending the Status Quo: Exploring r/TrueUnpopularOpinion as a Defensive Public” and what it reveals about how online communities mobilise discourse to resist social change and protect dominant viewpoints.

This episode offers insights into computational grounded theory, mixed-methods research design, and the challenges of studying contentious online spaces.
