The Psychological Meaning of Words: LIWC and Computerized Text Analysis Methods
Tập 29 Số 1 - Trang 24-54 - 2010
We are in the midst of a technological revolution whereby, for the first time,
researchers can link daily word use to a broad array of real-world behaviors.
This article reviews several computerized text analysis methods and describes
how Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC) was created and validated. LIWC is
a transparent text analysis program that counts words in psychologically
meaningful c...
Willingness to Communicate in a Second Language
Tập 22 Số 2 - Trang 190-209 - 2003
Past research has focused primarily on second language (L2) acquisition as a
tool for promoting intercultural communication. The social context model, for
example, stresses the importance of contact, L2 confidence, and identity in
acquiring a L2. The willingness to communicate (WTC) model, however, emerged
from a concern with the functions of L2 use. This study combines these two
models to conside...
Cruel to be Kind and Kind to be Cruel: Sarcasm, Banter and Social Relations
Tập 7 Số 2 - Trang 101-121 - 1988
The present paper is concerned with the knowledge or cognitive representations
which individuals must possess in order to understand utterances occurring in
conversations. We examined Brown and Levinson's (1978) model which reconciles
the Cooperative Principle of Grice (1975) with the face-wants of conversational
interactants by relativising the operation of abstract principles of
conversation to ...
The Effect of Classroom Emotions, Attitudes Toward English, and Teacher Behavior on Willingness to Communicate Among English Foreign Language Learners
Tập 38 Số 4 - Trang 523-535 - 2019
Willingness to communicate (WTC) in a foreign language is linked to a range of
interacting learner-internal and learner-external variables. The present study
identified the predictors of WTC of 210 foreign language learners of English
from Spain. Multiple regression analyses revealed that the strongest (negative)
predictor of WTC was foreign language classroom anxiety, while foreign language
enjoy...
Achieving 'Shared Reality' in the Communication Game: A Social Action That Create; Meaning
Tập 11 Số 3 - Trang 107-131 - 1992
This paper reviews research on the 'communication game' (Higgins, 1981a) that
supports two sets of conclusions. The first set of conclusions concerns
communication as social action: (a) Communicators tailor their summary of target
information to suit their audience's knowledge of or attitudes toward the
target; that is, they achieve 'shared reality' with their audience and thereby
perform a social...
The Emotional Broadcaster Theory of Social Sharing
Tập 24 Số 4 - Trang 382-400 - 2005
This article introduces the Emotional Broadcaster Theory (EBT) of emotional
disclosure. EBT proposes that the intrapsychic need to share experiences with
others serves the interpersonal function of transmitting news. According to the
model, psychologically arousing stories will travel across social networks. In
addition, the extent to which stories travel reflects the degree to which the
original ...
Asymmetries in the Use of Verbal Irony
Tập 21 Số 2 - Trang 127-143 - 2002
Three experiments assessed four variables that may affect verbal irony
processing: people’s expectations of events, event outcome, evaluations of
outcome, and shared common ground. Reading times and rating tasks were used to
quantify the interaction of these factors. The failed expectation hypothesis
predicts an interaction of expectation, outcome, and evaluation. In contrast,
the expectation irre...
Effects of Language Intensity Similarity on Perceptions of Credibility Relational Attributions, and Persuasion
Tập 12 Số 3 - Trang 224-238 - 1993
Communication accommodation theory was used to predict relationships between the
degree of similarity of a source's and receiver's use of language intensity and
attributions made about the source of a message. A sample of 286 respondents,
whose use of language intensity had been assessed, read a persuasive message
written with either high or low language intensity. Actual similarity between
respon...
Politeness and Honesty Contribute Additively to the Interpretation of Scalar Expressions
Tập 32 Số 2 - Trang 181-190 - 2013
Scalar terms have been the focus of much recent attention. People can interpret
such terms narrowly, for example, interpreting A or B to convey A or B but not
both, on the grounds that a speaker would have explicitly used a more
informative term (i.e., and) had he or she been in a position to do so; or they
can interpret such terms broadly ( A or B or both). Examined here are the
effects of polite...
An Inferential/Strategic Explanation for the Social Organisation of Teases
Tập 11 Số 3 - Trang 153-177 - 1992
Previous work on teasing has examined the surface features of teasing
interactions and has suggested that responses to teases are generally serious
and are so because of the negative characterisations which are inherent in
teases. The present study uses an inferential/strategic model for examining the
social organisation of teases. Based on this analysis, it is argued that tease
responses are form...
