arXiv:2601. 13317v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Climate discourse online shapes public understanding of climate change and informs political and policy debate, yet it unfolds across structurally different environments: paid advertising platforms host targeted, institutionally produced messaging, while public social media reflects largely organic, user-driven discussion.
arXiv:2607. 13260v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Policy documents shape governance outcomes, but their reasoning is often implicit.
arXiv:2510. 18908v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Social media platforms such as Twitter (now X) provide rich data for analyzing public discourse, especially during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
arXiv:2405. 17838v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Socio-linguistic indicators of affectively-relevant phenomena, such as emotion or sentiment, are often extracted from text to better understand features of human-computer interactions, including on social media.
arXiv:2607. 14957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online firestorms are rapid collective escalations of highly negative user-generated content and may cause substantial reputational and economic damage.
arXiv:2608. 05155v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional sentiment analysis (SA) models, while effective for polarity classification, provide limited insight into the rhetorical, ideological, and framing dimensions of political discourse -- dimensions that are central to research in the social sciences and humanities (SSH).
Enthymemes, arguments with unstated premises or conclusions, are pervasive in persuasive discourse, yet their annotation remains notoriously subjective. We present a resource of 1,482 tweets from politically controversial discourse, annotated by five annotators for the presence of enthymemes and their argument structure, designed to study label variation.
arXiv:2608. 17987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid growth of social media has greatly influenced political discourse, highlighting the need to understand individual political ideologies and their temporal dynamics.
arXiv:2607. 21842v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research on political polarization on social media depends on the ability to reliably measure partisanship in user-generated content.
