Details This workshop aims to introduce researchers to the theoretical foundations of various measures of lexical diversity. Participants will measure lexical diversity themselves using both R and Python. Participants will first learn how to import, clean, and measure lexical diversity of texts using R and R-Studio. They will learn methods for importing and preparing texts, analyzing texts using different measures of lexical diversity, and exporting measurement results for use in subsequent statistical analysis.
