'This volume offers fascinating explorations of technologies that are changing how we measure and understand voting behavior. There are lessons in here for scholars and campaign practitioners alike.' - John Sides, George Washington University'Like many scholars of political communication, I struggle with how to measure today’s multi-platform communication environment in real time—and people’s responses to those messages. Schill, Kirk and Jasperson’s "Political Communication in Real Time" is the book I’ve been waiting for, a trusted source for the latest on how to tap what people are saying and thinking right now on social and digital media. My research will be the better for it.' - Travis N. Ridout, Washington State University'A well-researched, thorough analysis of the history and impact of Real Time Response methods and Moment to Moment data collection. Validating much of what we know, and uncovering many new and fascinating findings, this book will become required reading for everyone looking to benefit from in-the-moment research.' - David Paul, founder and CEO, Dialsmith, developer of the Perception Analyzer real time response system'This book is an important contribution to the emerging field of real-time response measurement. It brings together social and behavioral scientists and practitioners using real-time response techniques in business contexts. It provides interdisciplinary insights and international perspectives. It enlarges our understanding of real-time measurement by highlighting a broad variety of techniques capturing human reactions to reality on a second-by-second basis. It teaches us how to employ real-time response techniques in- and outside the laboratory. This book is a must-read for every scholar interested in how to open the black box of human information processing in political communication.' - Prof. Dr. Jürgen Maier, Universität Koblenz-Landau'This book offers great insights in the various fascinating ways of analyzing political communication continuously in real time. It is a must-read for everyone interested in innovative research methods used to study the effects of verbal and nonverbal communication.'- Prof. Dr. Marcus Maurer, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz
