I am Professor for Empirical Social Science Methods with a Focus on Text Analysis at the Department of Communication and currently Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Vienna. Before, I have worked as Associate Professor for Political Communication at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research and the Department of Communication at the University of Amsterdam. My research focusses on various aspects of computational communication science with a substantial focus on political communication. I study (social) media portrayals of politics and media effects on political attitudes and behaviours and contribute to methodological advances of content analysis techniques. I have co-authored more than 130 international journal articles and numerous book chapters on issues such as media and European integration, media election campaign and issue coverage, media effects immigration attitudes and extreme-right voting or on framing effects.
