"I'm polite(r) because I think you are. Elucidating the impact of contextual information on the expression of emotions by users of Wikipedia"

Held by: Prof. Nicolas Jullien, professor at IMT Atlantique. 

Abstract: 

The objective of this research is to examine the emotions conveyed in comments within online cooperative contexts that rely on asynchronous textual interactions, and to identify the factors that contribute to their emotional intensity. To achieve this, the study relies on Appraisal and Communication Accommodation theories to explore the interaction between the individual, the context, and the outcome of this interaction in the comments posted on Wikipedia's Talk Pages.
It has been found that the context has an impact on the emotions expressed by users. Specifically, the thread level has a greater impact compared to wider or narrower levels of analysis. Additionally, we highlight that emotion intensity varies due to the context around a baseline which is the emitting subject's one.
