Title: Recent themes for christians in science journals: a centering resonance analysis
Authors: Jonathan Simões Freitas

Abstract: This paper identifies the main themes discussed from 2011 to 2015 by the articles pub- lished in Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith (PSCF) and Science and Christian Belief (S&CB). Centering Resonance Analysis (CRA) was used to analyze the content of the 113 abstracts. The resulting word networks were agglomerated in twenty groups of articles by Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA). Each discur- sive cluster was then characterized and its main theme labeled in terms of its most important words. The thematic emphasis of each journal and their combined publishing trends over time were identified. Suggestions of other possible contributions from text analytics are pointed out, as an encouragement to further technical work in this field. Thus, this paper contributes both as an introductory resource for the recent academic discourse on science and Christian faith, and as a starting point to an informed discus- sion about the future of this evolving research area
