themescopeR
Implements the ThemeScope framework for detecting and visualising social representations in large-scale digital text corpora. From raw documents it builds, via 'udpipe' annotation, sentence-level word co-occurrence networks and derives two community-level indicators grounded in Social Representation Theory: the Prototypical Salience Index (PSI) for anchoring and the Concreteness Score (CS) for objectification. Communities are located in a two-dimensional, theoretically grounded representational map. The whole pipeline is usable from the R console; an optional 'shiny' graphical interface calls the same exported functions. The method is described in Misuraca, Spano and D'Aniello (2026) <doi:10.1177/01655515261454276>.
