> Dear AoIRists,
>
> one of our MA students is exploring the role of diverse emotions - first
> of all, anger - in responses to news stories on three major Norwegian news
> sites.  The broad hypothesis is that anger will be most prevalent and
> effective in catalyzing further response (including sharing, likes, etc.) -
> but four emotions total are taken on board: sadness, anger, surprise, and
> happiness.
>
> 1) There is an online tool available for analyzing the emotive content of
> texts - "The SATI API enables to perform Sentiment Analysis from Textual
> Information", etc.  Comments and observations on its utility, validity?
>
> 2) Recommendations, please, for either useful examples of similar
> research, especially with a view towards methods of accumulating and then
> analyzing emoticons, and/or other suggestions regarding possible tools?
>
> Many thanks in advance,
