สรุป	Bayesian quantitative content analysis systematically codes and counts features in textual or media content, then quantifies patterns and tests hypotheses using Bayesian statistical inference. Unlike classical frequency-based content analysis, it incorporates prior knowledge or domain expectations into the estimation process, producing posterior probability distributions over content parameters rather than single point estimates with p-values. The approach is particularly valuable when prior research, expert knowledge, or pilot data exist and when uncertainty quantification around content proportions and category frequencies is important.	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.
