Two communication researchers systematically evaluated the crowdcoding results. Overall we conclude that the crowdcoding approach has great potential to be applied in communication research for assisting with the analysis of large social data.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Cite the paper:<\/p>\n<div class=\"gs_citr\" tabindex=\"0\">Guo, L., Mays, K., Sameki, M., &#038; Betke, M.
