Media Reporting on Physical Education from 2018 to 2024: Leximancer Analysis Outputs

Leximancer-derived outputs and configuration files supporting a study of media reporting on physical education between 2018 and 2024. The 338.6 KB dataset, created by Brendon Hyndman and last updated in April 2026, provides derived analytic outputs for transparency, as the original full-text articles are not included. Users must access source texts through original publishers or databases.

Use Cases

• Replicating concept-mapping analysis based on the provided Leximancer configuration files.
• Studying thematic trends in media coverage of physical education based on derived concept and theme outputs.
• Conducting secondary country-level analysis using the included analysis materials.
• Examining methodological transparency in computational text analysis for social science research.

Strengths

• Dataset is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, permitting broad reuse with attribution.
• Provides specific analysis configuration files, which may support reproducibility.
• Focuses on a defined six-year time range from 2018 to 2024.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small at 338.6 KB, indicating limited scope and derived outputs rather than source data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Original media articles are not included, requiring separate sourcing for full context.
