Abstract

Computationally intensive theory construction (CITC) is a research genre focused on generating theoretical insights by combining computational techniques with human interpretation. CITC involves intensive interaction between patterns identified using computational techniques and established theory in an effort to move theoretical knowledge forward (Berente et al. 2019; Lindberg 2020; Miranda et al. 2022a). Computational analysis extends human abilities to generate novel insights and to account for more of the complexity of the socio-technical phenomena that we study by allowing us to explore a larger variety of potentially relevant aspects of the phenomena.
