Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The aim of this study is to provide an initial exploration of how researchers and communicators utilize content curation in their publications on the video-focused social platform YouTube. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted, presenting a taxonomy for analyzing scientific dissemination content curation on YouTube. The proposed taxonomy is based on various parameters grouped under the dimensions of Content and Curation, including: Quantity of content, Temporal range of content, Source of content, Curation techniques, and Integration of curation. The results also showcase representative cases drawn from YouTube, published by researchers and communicators from various disciplines and with gender representation. This taxonomy can be valuable for content curation specialists, and especially for the community of researchers and communicators on YouTube.
