For this book, I ended up using only both extreme ends (Level 1 and Level 3), but in the original research, a careful second‐stage preprocessing of all reports built the foundation for the analysis along all three levels. (See Figure D.1.)

Level 1 analyzed separately for each 10‐K filing date the amount of occurrences/frequency of digital transformation language dictionary terms per category in the “raw” reports and, for normalization purposes, the relative percentage of occurrences versus total words as a proxy for digital transformation outcomes. In simple words, it counts how often digital terms appear in a report and makes this number comparable across reports by adjusting it for document length.

Level 2 (not used for this book) analyzed separately for each 10‐K filing date the number of occurrences of digital transformation language dictionary terms per category in relationship to explicit statements on monetary or timing impacts and the relative percentage of these occurrences (versus total level 1 occurrences) as a proxy for digital transformation outcomes.
