Hi Mayo, My research group is currently working on a comprehensive literature review of Wikipedia research. For now, almost all the studies we've found are posted at these locations: * Peer-reviewed journal articles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Academic_studies_of_Wikipedia#Journa… * Doctoral and some other theses: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Academic_studies_of_Wikipedia#Theses * Peer-reviewed conference papers (temporary location): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Moudy83/conference_papers Most of the abstracts are included, though hidden. To access all the abstracts for searching, you might want to either display the wiki source code (by clicking "Edit") or view the source of the HTML page. Then you could do a simple keyword search on "emotion" or "elderly" or other keywords. Of course, this is just a rough search suggestion, but hopefully you should locate a few studies that way. ~ Chitu -------- Message original -------- Sujet: [Wiki-research-l] Wikipedia & Emotions // Wikipedia & old people De : Fuster, Mayo &lt;Mayo.Fuster(a)EUI.eu&gt; Pour : wiki-research-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org < wiki-research-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Date : Lun. 25 Avril 2011 10:10:13 EST Dear everybody! I hope that you are happy and fine! I am looking for previous studies, data, writing, suggestions on two issues I am working at the moment: * Wikipedia and emotions, from a plurality of perspectives (i.e. data which emerged on studies in terms of emotions that wikipedians express, analysis from the perspective of sociology of emotions on wikipedia case, etc.) * Old people (people of more than 55 years old) participaiting in Wikimedia projects (I.e. stadistics of participation, attends to reach old people, etc.). Thank you in advance. Have a nice day!
