Content analysis (sometimes called textual analysis when dealing exclusively with text) is a standard methdology in the social sciences for studying the content of communication. Ear; Babbie defines it as "the study of recorded human communications, such as books, websites, paintings and laws. "Harrold Lasswell formulated the core questions of content analysis: "Who says what, to whom, why, to what extent and with what effect?." And, Ole Holstri (1969) offers a broad definition of content analysis as "any technique for making inferences by objectively and systematically identifying specified characteristics of messages." Here what Dr. Kimberly A. Neuendorf (2002) offers a six-part definition of content analysis: "Content analysis is a summarizing, quantitative analysis of messages that relies on the scientific method (including attention to objectivity-intersubjectivity, a priori design, reliability, validity, generalizability, replicability, and hypothesis testing) and is not limited as to the types of variables that may be measured or the context in which the messages are created or presented."
