תקציר	Simulation-assisted quantitative content analysis (SA-QCA) extends classical quantitative content analysis by integrating computational simulation — typically Monte Carlo methods or agent-based models — to validate coding schemes, estimate coder reliability under controlled conditions, test category distinctiveness, and assess the robustness of frequency-based conclusions before or alongside the analysis of real text corpora. The method preserves the systematic, replicable counting logic of quantitative content analysis while adding a simulation layer that strengthens methodological rigour.	MONTE-CARLO-SIMULATION (Monte Carlo Simulation — Stochastic uncertainty propagation through MCDM model) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Metropolis, N., Ulam, S. in 1949. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.
