I created my own system, and mine is surprisingly similar to Jason's. And, so, I totally agree with the idea that the graphic should be according to tags. Great. Very helpful interview. Thank you for this.
@@jasonyuh6993 TY for the comment, Jason. I think it has to do with the nature of the field we are in (I also am a PhD student working on theology), or a doctoral work in general. We need to write things that requires us to be keeping track of the authors and their works all the time. It might not ideal for those who try to connect their own ideas and thoughts using Obsidian, however, for us, I guess the source of thoughts are just too important to lose track of.
@@PHwang-ld4hk Another theology student here... I agree - the biggest challenge for me adopting some of the suggested methodologies has been being able to refer back to (and cite) the source all the way through the process. This video is very helpful.
Regarding your talk on how to "find specific words/tags that are missing" at the graph, just add a dash (-) in front of your search and there you have it ;)
Interesting how he's got that all setup. Something for me to think about when it comes to my (future) dissertation... which will be several years away!
Just saw this video. Jason should read books from Antonio Piñero. He is an old Spanish university professor. I am sure he will be delighted to help Jason. Hope this helps
Thank you both for this talk, is very inspirging, as you said at the end of the video. I have a couple os questions. The first one is how to create tags on obsidian, because as I understand, hashtags work for headlines. My second question is if you could show us how you navigate from Obsidian to Word, and how you manage your references in this process. Again, thanks a lot, this is extremely helpful.
I feel like Jason has taken the idea of Zettelkasten but has made a system that is truly native to a digital platform. So many other Zettelkasten videos miss the power of the digital platform because they are adhering to the analog method too much.
Awesome thanks! What's your process for reading journals, books, etc? Do you read them digitally, hard copy? Do you highlight or just take notes as you go? I saw you import some books completely into obsidian, do you do that with all books and articles? If not, what does this organization look like? Thank you both!
I love how he manually puts in links for all the resources of each author. I have a similar need for my work, and I am wondering if there's a way to do that automatically.
There might be a plugin out there? I'd like to know as well. But I haven't really had time to look into those options and I do think doing things manually helps me to remember/retain, so I don't mind it.
@@jasonyuh6993 Hey thanks for the reply. I saw a plugin that will display all of the backlinks on preview mode, but I am currently doing it manually for pretty much the same reason. Let's see how it goes. Your field of research is crazy interesting to me. Keep it up.
Awesome, Jason! I just started using Obsidian a few months ago and love it. I haven't watched the video fully yet, but have you looked at the zettelkasten system? Is that what you use with obsidian?
What a small world and great to hear from you! Yes I have looked into the Z system. I use it a bit depending on the topic and how important intimate knowledge of that topic is for my argument. Obsidian provides the flexibility to be a Z system, but to also be more traditional. Our field requires more of a traditional way of taking notes because the context, not ideas, is what's most important (and what's most abused!).
When it comes to submitting drafts etc., does Obsidian have a reliable export function to Word that isn't full of problems? Or do you do your research in Obsidian and your writeup in Word?
Once you finish your dissertation, I hope that you will create a best practices version of you research flow. This video, as rich as it is, is a bit much to grasp in one view. I will have to watch again.
Good luck on your doctorate! Part of it is because my presentation wasn't very organized (partly b/c my workflow isn't very organized either). But if you have questions along the way, then feel free to ask.
@@expeditioner9322 it really depends! If the material is important and requires a close reading (or very dense and I'm having trouble understanding), then yes I sometimes do this. I try not to focus too much on how the details of note-taking, but more on just understanding the argument and its potential significance.
@@expeditioner9322 Something that I found super helpful is the 3-pass method - ccr.sigcomm.org/online/files/p83-keshavA.pdf . Going through a paper little by little (and not stressing yourself to understand everything the first time) has really helped me to get a deeper understanding of the literature
Ok, I wish I had known about this when I first started my doctoral research, but I can use now that I am in data collection and analysis has begin (Qualitative inquiry). Of course, I have to update the lit review, etc. Question: quote block? Is that the same as reference blocking?
Same! I wish I knew about this much earlier before course work, exams, etc. Unfortunately my notes are spread across 2 or 3 platforms, but it's better late than never. As far as your question, they are technically called blockquotes (via the > key).
@@jasonyuh6993 thank you! I am actually interested in the University of Toronto. I am a clinical social worker looking at the sociopolitical implications of trauma treatment. Your work sounds very interesting.

Thanks, Jason. I needed this since I too am working on my doctorate and wanted to find a way to use Obsidian in my research flow.
I created my own system, and mine is surprisingly similar to Jason's. And, so, I totally agree with the idea that the graphic should be according to tags. Great. Very helpful interview. Thank you for this.
I'm glad you enjoyed it and I feel somewhat encouraged that someone else has a similar system.

Fantastic!!! Seeing someone in academia use Obsidian as a tool in this way us just awesome!!! Needed this!
I think I speak for all of us when I say, Jason is LEGIT
Thanks Jason, great job and really appreciate your work and thanks for sharing . . .

Jason, dude, your mo is unreal! Is it, in fact, real?
It is, in fact, real!
That was my first question also😉

Check out the Obsidian forum or the Discord server - both excellent places for Obsidian questions and discussions.

Yes
Thanks for keeping this going. Do you think you would do any live chat or video sessions or obsidian Meetup?
Thank you for the feedback. Yes, planning on adding in some live sessions in the not-too-distant future.
When it comes to submitting drafts etc., does Obsidian have a reliable export function to Word that isn't full of problems? Or do you do your research in Obsidian and your writeup in Word?
You can set up export through the pandocs plugin.
@@joshfrost851 thanks! I'll have a look for that 😊
