SES-0140345Principal Investigator: J. Craig JenkinsInstitution: Ohio State UniversityThis Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER) provides funds to supplement the existing standard sources of international events data (primarily computerized content analyses of Reuters Business Briefs) with a field reporting system based on observers in seven Central and South Asian countries (Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgzstan and Pakistan). The field reporters are trained in a systematic event reporting format that captures many more conflict events than are reported in the Reuters sources and provides more comprehensive data for subsequent analyses. The grant would support the training of the field reporters, improve their infrastructure, and enlarge the geographic coverage of the reporting system. In addition, the PI will refine the computerized coding of the standard news reports to improve their reliability. Comparisons between the two sources will be made. The project will expand the systematic data collection of conflict events in an area of the world that has been under-reported in past conflict data files but has become an increasing area of internal and international conflict. The resulting publicly available data will increase our ability to test and refine theories of conflict, especially the relationships between internal and international conflict.

SES-0140345主要研究者：J.克雷格詹金斯机构：俄亥俄州州立大学探索性研究小额资助（SGER）提供资金，以补充现有的国际事件数据标准来源（主要是路透社商业简报的计算机化内容分析），并有一个以七个中亚和南亚国家观察员为基础的实地报告系统（阿富汗、哈萨克斯坦、塔吉克斯坦、乌兹别克斯坦、土库曼斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦和巴基斯坦）。 实地记者接受了系统事件报告格式的培训，这种格式比路透社来源报道的冲突事件多得多，并为随后的分析提供了更全面的数据。 这笔赠款将用于培训外地报告员，改善其基础设施，并扩大报告系统的地理覆盖范围。 此外，新闻主任会改善标准新闻报道的电脑编码，以提高其可靠性。将对这两个来源进行比较。 该项目将扩大对世界上一个地区冲突事件的系统数据收集，该地区在过去的冲突数据档案中报告不足，但已成为国内和国际冲突日益增加的地区。 由此产生的公开数据将提高我们测试和完善冲突理论的能力，特别是内部和国际冲突之间的关系。
