Summary: Empirical Text and Culture Research covers a range of topics relating to culture and language.
The purpose of Empirical Text and Culture Research (ETC) is to publish culturally oriented research that is both empirical and quantitative in its approach. “Culture” is understood by ETC to encompass both “high” culture (such as literature, art, and music) and the many aspects of everyday life - for instance, fashion and cuisine. The “world views” of different cultures and sub-cultures, and the relationship between language and culture, will also be key issues for the journal. Whilst work within the framework of systems-theoretic constructivist research is especially welcome, ETC aims to publish all forms of empirical quantitative research that fit its general parameters - for example, corpus-based research; computer-assisted content analyses; semantic differential studies; studies using sentence completion or word association techniques; and so on.
For the journal to have the maximum international impact, only papers written in English will be published in ETC.
