요약	Multivariate quantitative content analysis (MQCA) is a systematic, replicable approach to measuring multiple attributes of communication content simultaneously and examining how those attributes relate to each other or to external variables. It extends standard content analysis by applying multivariate statistical techniques — such as factor analysis, cluster analysis, regression, or MANOVA — to coded content data, enabling researchers to uncover complex patterns across many variables at once.	Comparative quantitative content analysis is a systematic, replicable method for counting and categorizing features of communication content — such as news coverage, social media posts, or policy documents — across two or more groups, time periods, outlets, or countries. By applying a standardized codebook to each comparison context, it reveals patterns of similarity and difference in how topics, frames, actors, or sentiments are represented, and allows statistical testing of those differences.
