Title: Què diem de nosaltres mateixos quan volem presentar-nos davant dels altres com un "producte" atractiu?

Abstract: This study analyzes the different discursive strategies, understood as a combination of themes, that individuals use when presenting themselves to others as an ``attractive product``, in the context of an online dating platform. The analysis is based on the free text in each individual's self-summary, from which their specific words are obtained. Using LDA (latent dirichlet allocation), the number of themes discussed and the keywords in each theme are determined. To label topics found in self-summaries, we extracted the semantic relationship between said keywords with the help of a word2vec algorithm created with the total speeches that we visualize with a TSNE. When we have determined the topics, we can decompose the discourse of an individual into a linear combination of topics used. In this decomposition, the weight of each topic are interpreted its relevance within the discourse, referred to as the discursive profile. Then using a cluster analysis of these discursive profiles, different communication patterns are determined, referred to as discursive strategies. Finally, the usage of these strategies among different individuals is analyzed, determining who uses what discursive strategies.
